Subject Matter makes a Difference

 

 

If taking pictures at a wedding, the brides dress will show clear detail of the lace and her eyes will sparkle as she smiles at the camera.

 

At the racetrack you’ll be able to get a great shot of which horse actually crossed the finish line first.

 

Real Estate pictures show in great detail each room, and even the number of electrical outlets along the wall, if that’s what you’re interested in.

 

With the right settings, you’ll get an action shot of a lion at high speed chasing down a zebra.

 

Any attempt, however, to capture a picture of a UFO will be out of focus, grainy and difficult to distinguish from your thumb print.  Suddenly, your very expensive camera acts more like a potato than a complex mechanism.

Some have even suggested that your excitement factor has great influence over the activity of your hands.  Overly active nerves cause your hands to shake, fingers forget which way North is, and somehow the laws of physics cause m&m’s to melt in your hands, not in your mouth, and it all happens so quickly.  It may or may not be related to Murphy's Law.  There are no documented findings on this.
