I think a great photo steals the soul of its subject.
Hmm that is what the Navajos think too.
To me when I go out to shoot I try to have a purpose but I always try to remain perceptive to the unusual. After a day of capturing I preview the images, the obvious bad ones go on round one, you know the ones, peoples feet, spinich in the teeth, out of focus (not to be confused with blurry), Way over or under exposed, then on round two of the preview I look at compsition, color, what is says, and the wow factor. So now I usually have about two shots left from several hundred. Some go imediatley into processing other go into a folder for further review at a later date. Then when I do the final review if I still like them they get to live. This is how I judge my work, when I look at other peoples work the need to get my attention quickly, and develop my interest in the subgect or the technique.
