cretan Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 My wife and kids and I were going for a walk a while back, I stopped to show them something in a tree, can't remember what when someone tapped me on the shoulder. Now I still cannot believe what this man said, he was from Europe I think, He said and I quote "can I take a photo with your Daughter", he did not have a camera I noticed and then he motioned towards my Camera. Still shocked my reply was " What the @#$%, did you just ask to take a pick with my Daughter", my Daughter is only 10 by the way, he looks at me with a straight face and says "yes, is that ok". He wanted a picture with my Daughter, with my Camera, So what's the point he cant keep the pic if its on my camera, and the obvious fact that she is a little girl, this situation has stuck in my mind, what is the world coming to, what did he think would happen, did he think I would let him snap away. you think you have seen it all, and then.

weegee Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Did you take a photo of him???? alone , so he can be identified down the track when needed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoiBiker Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Surely he was just offering to take a nice photo of the two of you together. You know, like people do for tourists sometimes. I've had people offer to do this loads of times. I've never suspected them of anything other than an interest in photography and a generous nature.

thequietman Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) Goodness me, you post a lot of crap, don't you ! Any possibility that you can avail yourself of something that resembles a life and think before you post? Is your name Richard per chance?

zeichen Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 That is very strange and creepy. In Vietnam I have had young people in groups ask me to take a photo of them with my camera. I guess they wanted to be put on someone's facebook. I just took the photo and then erased it when they left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooo Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) Something very weird about the OP's posts / topics. I do believe there is a bit of trolling happening here Cretan. Edited June 2, 2015 by Rooo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any possibility that you can avail yourself of something that resembles a life and think before you post? Is your name Richard per chance? will take note of that quietman, thankyou. I will stop travelling the world with my family and get a life, and be sure to not post about things that are highly unusual observations and post about more interesting things such as how to repair an umbrella, or better yet, how to keep mosquitos of my dog. when I do make a thread that meets your standards be sure to tell me please, as we must be sure to only post threads that appeal to you yes, keep in mind quietman your welcome to skip the threads but you pathetically posted in one you dislike, yet I am the one with no life. bottom line we are all here to share experience, some exciting some as boring as bat S@#t but that's what conversation is, no need to be so negative.

cretan Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 this is exactly why I posted this story, you have to admit it is a highly unusual question for a man to ask a father. but I have no doubt about what he said as I repeated it clearly and he said yes, a pic of him and my daughter. there was no misunderstanding I made sure of that, now if something so in your face crazy happened to you, don't tell me you would not talk about it.

"He said and I quote "can I take a photo with your Daughter", " He does not mention himself, so it was not clear. Clear only in how your processed events afterwards. I tend to think SoiBiker might be right here...it's a matter of perception. You did say he was from Europe...English was not his first language. And that he stuck around and said "yes" strengthens the idea that he was innocently offering to take a photo (of you) with your daughter. Alternatively, he was an aspiring camera thief.
