Happy Clicking! |
Lately, some things on my social profiles on Facebook, Twitter
or elsewhere have given me a stark realization. Suddenly I noticed that most of
my friends are ‘Professional Photographers’.
So it made me think a bit more as to what is the reason
people are drawn towards either getting clicked or clicking these ‘professional
pictures’. I got onto thinking and tried to dig deep in quest of reaching the
actual root of the situation. So let’s get started with my observations, shall
we?
·
Profile pictures on social sites need to garner
certain level of attention from friends. Unless there are couple of hundred
likes and few 10’s of comments it’s totally not worth it!
·
Phones have become Mini-DSLRS. Phones these days
come with 2^10 MP cameras in built that they actually shame the DSLRS.
·
Now that we have established that use of phones
have bottle necked to clicking pictures alone, these phones have reached even
the most common man of the country giving birth the selfie frenzy generation.
·
The App market are loaded with free picture correcting
software’s. These apps are capable of even changing the skin tone to discarding
deepest of scars of your face. Not surprised with mosaic like skin tones on
your pics anymore!
·
Monkey see monkey do. If he can, why can’t I?
After all my father’s hard earned money is totally worth spending on an
expensive DSLR camera which I barely know how to use, but its automatic mode
will do the job for me and I need to show the rubbish around my city which
everybody else see every day BUT they haven’t seen it through my lens yet!
·
All of sudden a few pictures clicked,
photoshoped with watermark of your name and a new FB page and BOOM you are now
a ‘Professional Photographer’
·
Oh Food! Oh Mountain! Oh beach! Oh a bird! Oh my
shoes! Oh my biceps! Oh what the crap! These sentiments have graduated to become
life like pictures. They MUST be clicked and posted.
·
If I don’t click and post pictures online =
OUTCAST!
Well, I’m no alien to this trend.
I am a part of this gang way too. We are all in that time where we just cannot
resist flipping our phones out and clicking a picture on doing something new,
and that’s not it; just clicking and not posting it on FB or Instagram is a
CRIME. Therefore the #Post #Online #With #Annoying #Hashtags is totally compulsory.
;)
So on this note, I would say keep
clicking and keep posting because a lot of Mobile brands, Camera brands and the
whole of Social Media would crash if we don’t! :)
Happy Clicking!!
