Usually, Doug, when you say this on the lug there are a bunch of guys who
think that shooting more to get the good shot is reprehensible. They have a
word for it I forgot what it is.
Me, I agree, I'm shooting more making my pictures better.
Does shooting 33 shots of a fire hydrant make for a better finial image than
shooting 3 or 4? You bet it does and you can quote me.
And that is what makes all the diff er ance.
