I took some shots today over 37 of them. Ou of those I had 4 that were usable but that I wasn't overly thrilled with. Back to the drawing board for me. Here is a peak at the disappointing ones.

I post a lot of photos here on myLot. It takes many shots for me as well till I get just the right one. That's what I love about digital photography. I can review the photo immediately and take another if needed of the same subject matter. I see no photos or link. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

4 usable shots out of 37 is not bad at all! Back before digital photography, the saying went for photography- if you can use only 1 shot on a roll of film, that that is very successful! And that's only about 1 out of 36 shots! So 4 out of 37 is extremely successful!

AARRGGHH!!!! There's a reason why I love my digital video camera. I can make videos and capture stills from those videos at my leisure, never missing a once in a lifetime shot. I love being able to pause moving pictures and snap things on my own time, not on nature's. Better luck tomorrow.

Andre and the pumpkins - My cat being totally uncooperative.
Yeah thank goodness I am not using film or I would have been more than dissappointed lol. I am going a different direction tomorrow with my shots.

I know how you feel. I took some the other day and I know I probably took about 50 and was only able to use about half of them, if even that. That can be so disappointing when you think they are going to pretty good and they turn out not as great as you wanted. Or, they look fine on the camera but when you get them to your computer it's a different story. lol
