Really bad photographer

@skinnylatte *waves hand wildly in air* Me, me, me!
@skinnylatte I have two significant fails, so maybe I should apply? 😅
@skinnylatte fun idea. I don't think I am bad enough, but when I was 13 I went there with a point and shoot and sure enough everything looked spectacular even though I knew nothing about taking photos.
@skinnylatte They need a bunch of families with young children. When I was eight I was an awful photographer.
@Llamacalamity @skinnylatte i remember taking photos with my 4 fingers visible

@MuhammadFreeSoftware @skinnylatte Hahaha, classic.

I tried to take a family photo and no one had a head visible

@skinnylatte

I may have a chance 😂

@skinnylatte “You must be allowed to travel to Iceland, the UK, and the USA” the last country eliminates quite a few people. Especially non-passing trans people.

@skinnylatte

"You must be allowed to travel to Iceland, the UK, and the USA"

usa ?

@skinnylatte for once, my mediocrity comes in handy. Thanks!

@skinnylatte

LOL.

wonder if this is like the VT campaign "welcome to Vermont. now go home."...

@skinnylatte sounds amazing but they lost me with the last three words of the requirements. 🙁
@skinnylatte I have a Guinness record of photofingers, should I participate? 
@skinnylatte
I can do that!
Here’s Jupiter!
If I can photograph a whole planet, I can sure photograph a small country.
Where’s my ticket?
@skinnylatte imagine being fired from this job because your pics arent bad enough. Truly devastating. A three-arc greek tragedy.
@skinnylatte can we just like... never go back after we get to iceland?
@skinnylatte Yeah, I'm afraid I don't qualify. Great promo, though.
@skinnylatte foiled by my mediocrity once again
@skinnylatte WOW! This is so crazy and cool. I am sorry I can't apply...
@skinnylatte "You're comfortable sharing yourself on video and in photos" and "You like people" - sorry, I'm out 😂 (Also "You must be allowed to travel to Iceland, the UK, and the USA"... why would I want to travel to the US? In this day and age? Nope)
@skinnylatte presumably the plan is to get the pictures, then proclaim that even really crap photographers can't make the Icelandic landscape look bad? It's a winner!

@skinnylatte

"Icelandair has broad rights to modify, replace, or revoke the Winner..."

Modify the winner?

@geoffl
Please modify my citizenship to Icelandic
@skinnylatte
@skinnylatte Oho - now here's where my predilection for taking blurry pictures of pigeons at the great sites of the world may pay off.

@skinnylatte
[looks over at framed photo of Icelandic lighthouse hanging on the wall]

Unfortunately I don't qualify, being merely mediocre.

@skinnylatte I'd be willing to dust off my zinc plates if they're serious about sending me over there.
@skinnylatte "You must be allowed to travel to Iceland, the UK, and the USA" somehow I start to believe that fine print is important here.
@skinnylatte This will be tough. It has to be someone who doesn't understand why their work is bad. The Florence Foster Jenkins or William McGonagall of photography. EDIT: I've got it! Neil Breen! He's the DP of his own movies, already a photographer.
@skinnylatte I'm sad that I don't qualify as a really bad photographer, but I might be aware of some.
@skinnylatte "You must be allowed to travel to Iceland, the UK, and the USA"

Why? I e.g. am technically allowed but better not dare given I posted online that I do not like the current president.
@skinnylatte Oddly must be able to travel to US but no mention in full T&C.

@skinnylatte

Worst photographers?

Iceland Air can just take the pictures themselves then.
