[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 250989, member: 12257"] When I have control of the situation, I set it up how I want it, shoot a few. Change angles, set it up how I want it, shoot a few. Repeat. (with kids, it's set 'em up how you "think" it should go, try to get them to do it, and do minor bits of "spray") For wildlife, I'll spot what I want to shoot, take a pic or two, THEN try to set it up how I want it before trying to change my angle. I will add a third angle, too, as I use it quite often. You need to have "the eye", as I often wander looking for photos. I see all sorts of things that COULD be interesting, but I often pass over the "could be's" for the "WOW" shots. If I see a "could be" that can't be changed into a "WOW" with a little maneuvering, I'm learning to continue on... In those instances where I'm very familiar with the area, or the random subjects (like squirrels) in question, I will set it up, just like Moab Man is talkin' about. There ya go, a little of each with a different option. Nobody is angry, and... I still get cookies if I'm ever in the neighborhood, right??? LOL [/QUOTE]
