That's largely true for me, too. But there are a couple of my favourite
images:
http://www.jfwaf.com/PAW/PAW.php?name=PAW0651
and
http://www.jfwaf.com/Recent%20Work/pages/CityStreets.html
where my satisfaction with the shot is to some extent based on the
fact that these are both images I deliberately set out to capture;
I knew (or at least hoped) what I would end up with before starting.
That's not quite the same as the amount of effort involved, but it
is something that only I, the photographer, know about the images.
