Response to Well, now you've made me jealous,

I have the eye for detail but then I just throw my hands up in the air in surrender when you're already too far into the process only to realize that there's still that missing 5%.

The guys who go for that 5%, they're the ones who get paid the big bucks.

I guess the text is more about the compromises that we often times make in pursuit of the "perfect" photograph. Even our standards get put into question. We say this and that but let it go at times when it comes to our own work simply because it's too much work to go back and "redo" the process.

Going further, I could probably systematize my workflow to make for easy corrections but I just get really sucked in the moment. Every photograph, to me, has a different rhythm and my approaches will always be different depending on the mood and the "music". Imagine how you would approach a lady in a dance floor. Not always the same. There might be that time when you want to go around her before taking her hand. Or perhaps draw her close to you right away pulling her from the small of her back. I really just get lost.

Hehehe, i'll keep your last statement in mind wink.gif
