There are two types of photographers. I’m not talking of amateurs and professionals, but something else.
We have those who think throughly and take few pictures, the few-but-smart.
Then we have those who take hundreds of shots, believing they’ll get one that meets the standards. We’ll call them lottery players.
I belong to the latter, and been considering buying more SD cards, though the camera doesn’t inspire me to take tons of pictures of the same thing, unlike the phone. It’s about speed.
Plus, I won’t be sure of the results until I upload the photos to my computer.
Finally, I got something to share for the Macro Monday Challenge!
It’s a Chrysanthemum, I think.
Not too macro, but macro enough, hopefully.

I enjoy taking pictures and I take only a few shots, I am kind of choosy.
I’m kinda choosy too, but I take several shots because I’m afraid I won’t be satisfied with any if I take just a few. ?
I have a lot to learn about photography I would call myself a ,”Point and shoot” photographer. Photography has taught me a lot about composition but that only comes with experience.
I like your flower with droplets on it
Thank you! ? I shoot until I get what I wanted, but following the rules might save some time, and experience certainly helps too. ?
Thank you! ? I think I was just lucky. ?
True, the second one has a perspective that makes it look like a solo flower. ?
It’s a very lovely picture! I don’t have formal training in photography and I am hoping to have one. But I am still saving for the gadget.
Thanks! ? I’m learning as I practice, and read the useful tips the Virily members sometimes share, but formal training would definitely be a good idea. My boyfriend found some good deals in sites like Groupon, I will give them a look soon.
Before I was given this hybrid (not a fully professional DSLR), I considered saving for the Canon Rebel series.
It’s small but performing, the size is totally fine because I got small hands. ?
My wife takes more photos than me. I like your pic
And are her photos worse or better than yours? ? Thanks! ?
That’s a good shot! I like it!
To be honest, I only made a few shots in taking pictures, not because I am smart but because I was lazy and easily felt enough.
Thank you! ? Do you ever regret not taking enough pictures, or thinking you could have done better and it would have only taken some extra seconds? I’m afraid of that and often take many pics just ‘to make sure’. ?
But the camera made me lazier, or more confident. I’m usually satisfied with few shots, compared to the phone.
Of course, I often regret it, but that because I don’t take many other pictures from the same place or angle.?
I think I’m not a diligent person to select one of the best images from many similar images.?
So gorgeous with the waterdrops! Whatever phone or camera I use, I take 100 pictures that are completely identical and I still feel hesitant to delete any of them later. XD
I was happy I could ‘work’ with the water drops. ?
If you feel hesitant to delete identical pictures, that’s more serious than I expected. ?
I like selecting the best ones, and delete the rest. It can take hours, but I like it. ?
Beautiful flower. I do not plan anything and how much I will photograph. When I see something interesting I make a picture.
Thanks! ? Just one picture for each interesting thing? Is it always enough? ?
I love photography and take many shots as well. Pretty flower.
Thank you very much! ?
Great shot, love the color. I take hundreds of shots. And several angles of the same subject too.
Thank you! ? *feels like a paparazzi* ?
