One that I most often notice is that you know where the sun is, and try to place yourself where the subject will be appropriately illuminated. These there shots not only had to be anticipated and panned accordingly (we won't EVEN go into focusing a Telyt on a moving object thay may or may not be at infinity...), but they would have meant much less unless the light was natural and believeable. And so it was. I rest my case. Nice work, Doug.
