I have been thinking about how to answer this, Christine. But today, I had one of the most embarrassing photographic moments. Every year, we need a company shot so the US CEO can do his global employee presentations. This year, I thought I'd bring out the long lens, park everyone under a tree, with the company building and signage in the background. The lens needed to be about 150-200mm to compress the perspective and get the 2nd storey signage in shot, and so I had to be about 50m back to fit everyone in. 12s timer, and a short sprint I thought, no worries. But my office shoes have no grip, so in front of everyone took a tumble half way, scrapping arms, knees, hands, and (ahem). Got the shot though.
