I think you guys are confusing taking "good" pictures with taking ridiculous (gay) ones... Taking good pictures is encouraged...
Although, the point of this discussion is to point out thatthere comes a point wherethe photographer istrying too hard. It's a fine line. See, if you're not careful,you wind up being "The Eye Gazer" - and all your buddies are looking at your pictures online,

wondering if you might have taken your love affair with whitetails "to the next level." Ya know?

Although, when you're half-naked in a swamp, in your bare feet, straddling a giant dead buck - and smiling like a butcher's dog - that's just awesome. I don't care who ya are.
Give us an example of what you decided is ridiculous ones?
