Film is Cheap Shot a Lot

There Can Be Only One

Gone are the days when it cost a lot of money to take photos. Digital film is cheap and recycling is as easy as “Delete”.

Therefore, don’t skimp on the number of images you take. Especially if you are in one of these situations:

  • You won’t be here again, (Safari in Africa)
  • They aren’t getting married again soon
  • There is a lot of wind
  • The light is low or poor
  • The light is fantastic
  • You have your camera in hand and are taking pictures

That about covers the times to make sure you are taking a lot of images.  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve taken half a dozen shots of a particular subject and told myself “Enough already”  Then when I got back to the computer and downloaded the shots there was only one that really turned out.  But there was one.

If I hadn’t taken as many as I had . . .  Taking a lot of images to get “The One”  is a good habit to get into.
