Luck plays a big part in photography. Take the above photo for example. That was the only shot I got off on the gull. I was lucky to capture the crawfish in midair a milisecond before he gobbled it up! The only skill involved was pressing the shutter release button, everything else was pure luck. I didn't know exactly what the gull was about to do. I thought he was going to bathe himself. So I focused,took the shot and lo and behold, he came up with dinner! Sometimes you just get lucky. Any photographer that tells you it's all skill, isn't telling you the truth!!
