First Thing that Comes to Mind Before taking a Picture
The first thing that comes to mind before I take a shot, I think about the subject. The subject may be from a person to an object, or to a motion picture. Everything starts off as a blur and also has to start off with a focus. Beforehand, I think about what the subject is suppose to pose, or a certain way we want the subject to be doing or acting. Lets say a person, it's the Fall time, leaves are falling, and you decide to take a shot with the subject throwing leaves up in the air as an example of a freeze shot perhaps. Now what comes to mind before you take the shot? Maybe you want everything to be clear, to the person from the leaves, you want it all to be perfect. Maybe you need to arrange some settings on camera to grab that freeze shot, or wanting the leaves and the person or even the background to have no blur. If there was a blur, you may have wanted to constantly take more pictures until you find the shot you like the most. Another scenario would be a roller coaster riding by on the New York-New York at the Las Vegas Strip. What comes to mind? Timing. You would want to figure out when you should focus the shot, and when your timing is right, you get to see the ride rolling along the tracks. I feel like it all depends on your settings, like another freeze shot. You see the coaster coming your way and again, there may be blurring somewhat, but you may be able to focus the shot to find what you are looking for. In many different ways, alot of things may come to mind before taking a picture. It can sometimes be overwhelming, because you may be so into your work that you want everything to go well and perfect so you know what you're looking for. Other times, it may just be about correction and timing. If you set your settings properly and the right way, you may be successful. And if you know your timing that you want it to be and to find the proper time, then you will be able to find the picture you're looking for and you will see that it could be possibly clear. I feel though, that having the picture you want to come out the most successful, could be based on the actual camera or the lenses. If you were as professional to be one of those pro-photographers, then more than enough things go on your mind. It could be a situation where it was a one-time shot that you had to take without any errors, and it would automatically send to the critics, now that woud be a big deal. That would be the time where you really have to focus on what you have to do and how to make it look so appealing for the viewers. Overall, time and time, find your subject, notice your surroundings, and being accurate or making corrections is key successful before taking a shot.
