That was my initial thought when I saw the thread title, too. To play along with Man's response, my main subjects of interest are landscapes and wildlife. I do use my dSLR setup for family events, too, but those "people" shots are more like family album snapshots than serious photography. I'm much better at composing landscapes than capturing quality images of people. It's a skill I need to work on.
I'm not too fond of tripods, either, but I do need to add a better one to my kit when I finally get a better quality long lens (something in the 400-500mm range) for wildlife shooting. Right now I have an inexpensive (less than $100) Manfrotto that works okay, but can be cumbersome to pan and follow wildlife. It showed its limitations last summer in Yellowstone.
