2. When you are about to release the shutter, ask yourself if you want to look at this photo later.

I photographed a sunrise about a month ago and I'd made the horrendous mistake of only having one roll of 120. 10 frames. For something as potentially spectacular and timing-dependent as a sunrise, that is quite a difficult situation.


Luckily I had plenty of 35mm so if I used up the 6x7 too quickly I'd still be able to get something usable. I always take a small 35mm kit for sunrises as I can use a wider range of lenses.

Not that it mattered, it wasn't much of a sunrise anyway... If I get time tomorrow I might scan a frame from it for a PAW.
