fingsI still need to finish editing modern dance photos, so that I can go take pictures of this week's show with a clear conscience. But I figured I'd take a moment to point out this BBC article on why digital cameras help make all of us better photographers. One bit stunned me a little.
That's 1 in 1260 pictures. At that level, I could take National Geographic worth pictures. I shouldn't feel so bad about deleting my not-so-good photos.
At National Geographic - to some, the pinnacle of magazine photography - snappers average 350 rolls of film per story. That's almost 12,600 individual pictures, of which about 10 make it to press.
