Having been out shopping instead of shooting, I browsed through my pictures and found something to play with.

Very artistic....
Irma, you should hold the camera the other way to position it vertically (right hand above your head)...

Actually, that was a very poor attempt at a joke... now that I look at it, it's not even funny. Sorry if you took offence, Irma...
Schell - most photo handbooks suggest that you do it that way (my camera manual does it too) although I suppose it's just personal preference. Most obvious benefit to me would be that you have greater flexibility in rotating it to the right. But... whatever works for you, I guess.

ST, there is absolutely anything wrong with your comment at the contrary... your are prefectly right... I normaly do as you say... but I was working with the pol filter at this moment and the 50mm lens is very short... so I was turning the filter when he took the picture... I am thankful that the picture is so post processed that no one can see that my hand really looks as if I were holding a "taco" ready to bite
