Restaurant table camera games

Ever been stuck around a table at a restaurant with friends and the service is slow? Well, perhaps it's in the middle of Italy and you have a camera since you are on tour with a choir. I discovered two games you can kill time with.

1. Water glass art:
Just macro the camera and take pictures of things through a full water glass:









2. Camera timer roulette:
Everyone sit around the table. Just set the 10 second timer, hit the shutter and then spin camera while suspended from the strap, while holding it over the middle of the table. It helps if the strap is attached at the center of the side of the camera. Try to spin it flat. Keep it spinning until the shot. Then after the shot, determine who got in the picture, then they get take the next shot.

This game seemed to like Leslie:
