I wear my M around my neck

Ovewr the years, I have found that (before you actually put the camera round your neck) the strap can get caught on things like doorknobs and pull the camera out of your hand; so I never fit a strap and use a bag instead.

So far, no one has asked me why Iam carrying a camera. If/when some finally does, I'l just to tell them the truth, "Because I'm a photographer!". 😀

I hand them a card and usually say: "My camera is like super man's cape...Without it I'm just another mild mannered guy on the street!" (with a big smile.)

I've actually booked weddings this way!
