Taking too many pictures

Throw

 Sigh..

Marie: Too many photos.

Maurice: Take fewer. Wait for the decisive moment, then snap. That’s what Henri Cartier-Bresson did.

Marie: I might miss the moment.

Maurice: Then bracket the shots. Three: one before, one during, one after.

Keep

Marie: And I can never find the one I want.

Maurice: Workflow. End of every day delete the duds. Ruthlessly. Throw 90% and keep 10%. Then date them and put them in folders organized by subject.

Voice-over

Cartier-Bresson eventually gave up photography and took up sketching. He drew the decisive moment. Quantity fell and quality rose.
