My guess is that it is mainly due to opportunities missed: As I have said before, I bring the camera (ready for action) more often than most people I know, and I also take the shot even when I know that it will probably fail. Thus I snap lots of failed shots, but every once in a while things work out and you get a good shot where you did not expect it.
All things considered: Shoot like crazy, and you will get some great shots out of it.
It also pays to know the camera. I have been through every nook and cranny of the manual and experimented with every single setting, even in ways not described in the manual. Keep experimenting.

Do you have any idea as to the name of that flower ?
Quite unique.

It's called Phacelia. I've never seen it before.

Great pictures Lulim I loved the sunset.
Gilliatt, the view of these mountains is superb. The pictures are quite old but wonderful.

They almost look like mangoes, but I don't think they are...
My earlier pictures are all from the dim distant past so I thought I would post these that were taken last week. I hope you find them interesting.

Great pics Brian, Surrey is really beautiful!!
Ah, I miss summer...
Thanks Lulim, but these are not olives, in fact TurquoiseSunset is right they are mangoes, a bit tiny though.
Good guess TurquoiseSunset how did you find out?
