The lesson I (re)learned in Milan (had the same problem in Manchester/Liverpool): People don't know how to take pictures! This is the only one of our group pictures that turned out. I was worried about giving my camera to someone and having them run off with it, but I should've been more worried about whether or not the picture would even turn out. I don't know if it's because people aren't used to taking pictures with an iPhone or what, but there were quite a few failures before we got a good one.
Here are some of the failed attempts...
Failed attempt 1: I'll give her some credit...this one was almost definitely an accident.
Failed attempt 2: Gettin a little shutter happy. Yes, that is the button that takes the picture. You already proved that with fail number 1. Now you should probably also realize that your finger is showing up in the picture.
Failed attempt 3: First, your finger is STILL in the picture. Second, we told you we wanted the cathedral in the background...figured it was implied that we meant the whole thing and not just the first set of doors haha.
Failed attempt 4: We gave up on photographer 1 who was obviously incompetent and moved on to a new one. This guy had the right idea but didn't alert us to the fact that you basically couldn't see our faces at all cuz of the shadow.
Finally, we found someone to take the first picture which did turn out.
