Great point. I've been trying to say "What do I like about this scene" and
photograph just that.
In John Shaw's landscape book he says to describe you photo. If it takes a
paragraph, it's too much. A sentence is good, a phrase great and one work
excellent (my paraphrase). I try to take one photo without bracketting etc,
just to focus more closely on what I'm doing. This unfortunately means I
take less photos. But I think I'm getting better. The list info helps heaps.
