[QUOTE="Alan, post: 309719, member: 12333"] I don't drive a car only one way, ie: 65 mph on an icy road or 30 mph on a dry Interstate. I don't cook my eggs only one way, some days scrambled some day sunny side up . I don't dress with the same shirt and pants everyday, not wearing a suit to mow the lawn. Why then do I need to shot photographs the same way? Case in point these two bird shots. They are both birds in the wild. They were both shot handheld. They were both on a sunny day. The first one I spent time waiting for the moon to be in the right place because I knew the bird is nocturnal and would most likely not move, and I chose my position based on that. The second, well you get the picture. I could go on about shooting weddings, portraits, kids etc but my point is do what you feel is right at the time. There is no perfect rule except maybe this one....Do your best, Post-process the rest. :cool: [ATTACH=CONFIG]90422._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]90423._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
