Professional Photo

It took all morning, but I got one that is at least acceptable:



"Excessively squinty" is the smallest problem I could come up with out of 150+ shots. Better luck tomorrow? I hope to have a non-embarrassing web page by then. It's so much more difficult than I had expected.

Actually I really like this picture.

Rapid Shots or Another Photographer ...

Often it's the nuances of expression from shot to shot wherein one finds the shot that satisfies.

If the camera can be set to do a (relatively) large number of shots in a series, most will be rejected, but it can be a quick way to get a great one with little effort -- especially if you want to avoid looking too 'posed'.

Another person doing the shooting (even candidly) can do wonders to bring out the 'real' you. Often it only takes someone not intimidated by the camera and/or unaware of your expectations -- recent DSLRs, when preset, do amazing things.
