have you really taken almost six thousand untitled pictures? ah the miracle of digital. i like the frame composition. and i actually know what that means, i'm not just throwing it around. mise en scene.
Really? I hated the frame composition. In fact it was the first thing I expected to be pointed out. This was a snapshot I had to take whilst on the move (not literally, but I had a couple of seconds to take it). The wooden post really bothers me. If only I'd taken one step to the left, so the post was not so central. Ruins the picture if you ask me. That and it being a mostly boring picuture. Bland, quite bland.
do you ever feel like your cheating when you can take 5000 pictures? I mean I almost always take at least 3 or more pics of the same subject before I get it right.
Sometimes Shrecky, sometimes. But usually I take time, compose myself to compose the photo correctly, change the shutter speed, aperture size, focal length, lighting, exposure, exposure bias, ISO speed, and metering. And usually I get it first time. However, when I don't then I feel I can afford to take it again, since it isn't costing me extra for developing the so-called unsatisfactory photo. But generally, I don't feel like I'm cheating Schrecky. I really don't. However, if I was using a digital camera (instead of a digital SLR) and I didn't have to create the photo myself by changing all the settings for the picture because the camera did it for me, then yes, I would definitely feel like I was cheating. With time and practice, you'll get the photo first time around.

and yes Janice, 6000 pics. But only on that card. 8000 on the other, but those are the new ones.
The miracle of my digital SLR baby.
