111 Times People Asked Strangers To Take Their Picture And Deeply Regretted It Later
We all have that one friend who is always behind the camera taking pictures of us but never appears in any picture him/herself. There are also moments while traveling when you‘d love to have the memory immortalized with everyone who was there with you and you have no choice but to ask someone around to take a picture. And not all the strangers are great photographers, as it turns out...
Have you ever experienced it yourself? Did you hand the camera to a stranger to take a picture and regret it after? Let‘s share the best worst pictures that you had taken by a complete stranger, and vote for the "most skilled" photographer below!
