“F/8 and be there.” That’s the motto you hear. The best bit of this advice, the one that applies to every photographer, regardless of the discipline, is the last part: be there. Be in the right places, at the right times, and in the right frame of mind. Even if you have no idea that you’re in the right place at the right time, being in the right frame of mind can sometimes make it so.
