Castle photo bombs are SO not magical!

If you see my family posing for a pic, jump on in! We will laugh away when we get home! I will have 200+ others to choose from, and if not, I will clone you out. Not worth being angry about to me!

Me too!!!! I love it and laugh when I see it!!!! So, when is your next trip???
 
My family intentionally makes the silliest faces and expressions when we know our picture will be taken on a ride. Some of our favorite photos are of my family members pretending to get sick on Splash Mountain. We don't take the photos, even Photopass, too seriously. Everyone is different, but I think it would be funny to find some hidden photobombs in our photos pictures. :)
 
To anyone that thinks photo editing is wrong, I highly suggest a show called Brain Games from Nat Geo. Not only do ALL photos distort, but our BRAINS also constantly distort what we think we see.

Take a look at any paintings by Monet, especially the Rouen Cathedral series!

Even photobombing, in a way, dates back a very long time....Many great artists inserted little (secret) jokes into serious paintings. Many a wealthy family was depicted in a way that quietly reveals something unexpected, like something ugly about their personalities.
 

Isn't that extremely...extreme? Why was it impossible for you to take a better picture afterwards? Did everyone leave right after?

After pictures, people scattered depending on their interest. We were actually staying in Siesta key for the 50th anniversary trip and went in a few different vehicles to take a picture with Mom and Dad in front of the castle- as that is what Mom really wanted for their 50th. It was a special day, and luckily - yes- we did have another photo without the ****** in it... But what if that one picture happened to be the best- with all kids looking right way, no one blinking, etc. yes- my reaction may be extreme to some- but guess what- I don't care. This was a "grown" adult male. Not a child just acting out or who doesn't know any better. As an adult, you should be well aware in life that not everyone will find this "photo bombing" amusing and should be prepared for over-reactors like me to let you know just what I think of you. You never know whose trip of a lifetime you may be interfering with. Mom passed away from Cancer this year- no more anniversary trips, way to re-do a picture, no more days at the magic kingdom for her. I miss her every day, and that photo brings such a great memory for my family and I. Luckily, although there are many people in the background of our photo, there is not someone there who was pretending to be a family member. Ok- I digressed there- sorry- yes- I would over-react.. Hopefully would be photo bombers read this and know there are extreme people like myself who are not amused by you're B.S.
 
Sooooo, you guys are saying I should stop making obscene gestures in the background of strangers photo's? How about devil horn fingers?

Assuming you're not taking pictures of a stationary person or bystanders, and you have a camera that can take a succession of shots spaced a few tenths of a second apart, just hold your finger on the button, and keep the camera still.

Even if your photoshop skills aren't up to much, it's easy to crop out passers-by when you have various shots of the area they're passing through without them in the frame.
 
Probably shouldn't admit this...but...a few years ago my son was going to follow one family around for the day and casually end up in their pictures. Not doing anything goofy, just being "around" We were laughing about how long it would take them to notice him when they had their pictures printed. No flames...he didn't do it. Just laughed at the thought. Sometimes a good photobomber can make the picture!

Best time Ever, Neil Patrick Harris did this for a wedding. Brought the couple on the show and asked how their wedding was and then said, "I know, I was there". The video montage showed some of his photo bombs.

 
Same.

And my whole experience with photography is different since our wedding, when I found that things we liked were utterly despised by my dad and stepmom and my MIL and FIL. What one person likes another won't, and pictures aren't just for one person in a family.

And then what's worse is that I don't *like* editing everyone out of pictures, I wouldn't even edit the crane out, because the crane would have been there for my trip and to get rid of it is to lie about the trip. So I just want other people to behave like adults.
Gosh, I think some posters took this a bit too literally....I THINK PP just meant the trip was what it was--the crane was part of the memories (even if it made the pictures less than magical). I think everyone understands that "cameras lie"--it's a 2dimensional representation, made at a certain speed, certain lighting, etc. I was just waiting for some poster to remind us all that it's silly to even take pics when we could download a bunch from the internet anyway.

That is hysterical!! Wonder if my son can sue NPH for stealing his idea?
 
Not so much photobombing, but I always feel a little bad when I put my hands up on a ride photo and it perfectly covers someone's face behind me (it's happened to me as well). That being said, my favorite thing about ride photos is the other people. A gentleman in our "Dinosaur!" ride photo had the most epic eye-roll.

Obscene gestures probably not but nothing wrong with some devil horns!
