Thanks for this. I always wonder if I’m the only who has misadventures like this…and if I was a real photographer, nothing bad or clumsy would ever happen (and I would never miss a shot).

It took me 10 years to be happy with whatever outcome I get on attempts for photos, wherever or whenever. And in my opinion, a really good photo is only possible with good lighting conditions, therefore it’s almost pure luck (and maybe an eye for meteorology) to get an outstanding photo. All my favorite shots in my portfolio happened during fog or/and sundown/sunrise and/or northern lights or whatever stunning weather conditions, the location itself won’t change at all, despite of the talent or camera or planning.
