A good photo can capture your heart firmly. It is unforgettable even for a lifetime. There are some good photos that you cannot capture again. The photo is simply perfect in Subject mood, Lighting color and Tone. It is impossible to get such perfect photos to capture again.
We sometimes get such perfect photos not because of luck. It is very important to know about ‘Moment’ which is making unforgettable photos. Some called it as ‘Decisive Moment’.
It would be still difficult to take good photos for amateur photographers until they know about this ‘Moment’. I also couldn’t take any perfect photo for two years around in my early photography life because I did not know about ‘Moment’.
The following sample photo is one of my favorites ever I took. It is taken in a local trouper stage near Kyaukpadaung in central Myanmar. Character of this female dancer is very unique. Then I was capturing her for two hours. Finally I got this ‘Moment’ photo.
At first I did not know that she smokes and I did not expect either that she would do smoking at that moment. I just waited for that moment patiently. Later I tried many times again to capture such perfect photo meeting with this woman. But I could get this one again never.
Hope you realize now how ‘Moment’ is important to take such unforgettable photos!
