I'm bored, so figured I may as well start a pointless thread :)
Which eye do you shut when taking a picture? I was surprised to see I shut my dominant right eye, and look through the viewfinder with my left, and always have done, weird.
Probably you use neither because you use an external shutter device timer thingybob. But what about your everyday snapshot?

I close my left eye and look with my right. If I try it the other way around my nose is in the way as it bumps into the lcd!

Did anybody else have to actually get their camera out to see? hahaha I'm feeling like a dork right now :D
I close my left eye, for the same reason as Morbid

Depends on the nature of my subject, so it's a mixture closing either eye or leaving both open.

I close my right.
I've got a problem with that eye , so the left is the clearest :)

My right eye is my dominant eye. Sometimes (primarily when I'm shooting film, depends on subject) I leave both open.
both eyes open, right eye through the finder
