There's no secret: 1) I always have at least one camera with me. 2) I shoot almost every day. 3) If I'm shooting action shots, especially in bad light, I shoot enough to make up for a low keeper ratio. 4) If I'm shooting when I have time to get it right, I shoot and chimp until I get it right. 5) If I'm shooting in a weird or new lighting situation, I'll bracket the hell out of it in several dimensions so that I can analyze the results and see what works best. Or, did you think that my secret was that I send email from i4est, my iMac?
