New possibilities

Digital photography has pushed the limits and given us new exciting tools to work with. I can shoot equivalent to 8 36 picture films in one simple compact flash card, then down load it to my computer in a minute an be ready to go again. I didn't pay for the 8 rolls of film and I don't have to by 8 new ones before going out on next photo session... cool! You might say that it saves you a lot of time not having to enter a dark room or waiting a week to get them back. On the downside this makes you much more trigger happy, shooting enormous amounts of pictures at no extra cost!? Not really the way I see it. More photos means more time in your digital dark room, also known as your computer, sorting and correcting all your shootings. My advice: Enjoy the new possibilities, but hold on to your trigger a little bit and find the good views and composures to reduce the unnecessary shots a bit to save you time behind the screen.
