[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 309621, member: 1061"] I think we all tend to do both. Sticking to one composition method is counter-intuitive. Take the monthly challenges for example: the subject is predefined, and we often get an idea in our heads of what we want the final product will look like. Maybe we have a location in mind, perhaps even the exact shot we want. Other times it takes some on site scouting to figure it out. Regardless, the seed is planted before we even pick up a camera. Other times, we may just be out walking/driving around and something interesting catches our eye. This is often the case with the 365 projects. Even if you have some rough idea of what you want to shoot (I think I'll go wildflower hunting today), there is no real plan. It's all done on the fly. At the end of the day, when it's all said and done...[INDENT]Whether you spent hours toiling away in post, or were a stickler and [I]"got it right the first time"[/I] SOOC...
