Looks like you had a wonderful time.<br /><br />I often forget to take photos while I'm travelling, too busy enjoying the sites! I sometimes even forget to take my camera out, but luckily the one on my phone makes a good substitute in a pinch :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07358827139946367507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-89672226021232088252016-09-23T20:35:08.258+10:002016-09-23T20:35:08.258+10:00I agree, Yvonne, it is so easy to watch things thr...I agree, Yvonne, it is so easy to watch things through a lens in the interests of getting a good photo and missing the involvement in the event. That's a different kind of regret. So glad you got to enjoy your daughter's beautiful wedding.

The phone is marvellous for taking photos, isn't it. And being able to delete such a good thing.

I think the only photos I regret not taking are from last weekend during my daughter's wedding but I so didn't want to get in the way of the photographer and I kept consoling myself that we'll get all the best shots of that day in good time anyway. I also wanted to just revel in the day and everything about it and not watch it all through a lens, which I have done on occasion and regretted later.

They're something that can't be duplicated, aren't they! In my day in Australia, they didn't make any fuss about graduating from high school. Then when they had the university graduation ceremony, I was in London (my father lived in London so it's somewhat of a second home to me) and never had the chance to have the graduation ceremony and no photos. When my daughter graduated university I made sure we got a good photo!Kandy Shepherdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992773219169379298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-324784449387063972016-09-23T06:35:56.966+10:002016-09-23T06:35:56.966+10:00Hi Kandy

Good on you!<br /><br />I'm sure there are lots and lots of things I've missed the chance to photograph - I often forget the camera. On the other hand I've got some terrific shots. One of my favourites is from a Christmas morning when the children were young. Our tradition when they were little was not to put presents under the tree until they'd gone to bed on Christmas Eve. I have a photo of them coming into the lounge room and seeing the tree after Santa's visit. Their expressions are so precious.Annie Westhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804740491737358014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-639191022304086402016-09-23T04:05:13.346+10:002016-09-23T04:05:13.346+10:00When I was in Grade 12, I fully anticipated going ...When I was in Grade 12, I fully anticipated going into Grade 13, so I declined the grad photos. During that summer, I found out that my parents weren't allowing me to go to university after all, so I went straight to a nearby college instead and missed Grade 13 and its grad photos (because Grade 13 was basically for those entering university).<br />In college, I took what I thought was a 3-year course. Apparently it was 2 years of general Business Administration and a third year of specialized Business Administration. Again, I had declined the 2-year grad photos because I thought I was attending the 3rd year. Shortly thereafter I realized that I didn't need nor want to get the third year, so again I graduated without donning a cap and gown.<br />Bummer.
