Calling them memory shots, rather than snapshots just sounds better! We took a two week trip touring four different camp grounds across three different rivers in Texas this summer. I didn't bring much of my gear (worried for theft and taking away from our enjoyment, which was just being there for family time, not photo ops for dad!) I brought my 5d2, 300mm f/4 IS, and Tamron 28-75. I probably only got the camera out three or four times during the trip. One of each of the kids!
Oh, BTW, Group shots with all five kids mixed in with 5 mile hikes in the brutal heat of a Texas summer... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH. Yeah, no thanks.

Bubbles are Funny
