Photo Insight

In the field, there are three kinds of photographers. A soldier analogy is used.

There are support soldiers with the big guns who fire several hundred rounds and will maybe or eventually hit their target.

Then there are the marksman. They don't necessarily have the big or fancy guns. These are the ones who train to get their targets with a single shot.

Recently, I've found a third kind. The special forces, whom you didn't even realize were there.

In my view, digital photography makes many into the support troops. The marksman are more passionate about the art; they think as film shooters since you only get one chance. Special forces... well I can't say cause then I'd have to kill you!
