For sure. One that that has been somewhat lost in the digital age is composition. Now it's more the lucky shot and photoshop. Take a thousand shots and maybe you'll get a good one! If not who cares we'll fix it in post.
My sister has been taking a class wanting to learn, and I've been trying to get her to keep a notebook on every shot she takes while learning and trying to get her to go fully manual for the learning period. She gets annoyed with me as every time I see her click the shutter I ask her what the setup of the camera was!
Amen to that...Yes, composition went out the door when people had 1000+ shots at their disposal. I remember how expensive the film and processing was, so when you had 24 shots...you made them count. It was even more expensive when you had to buy flashbulbs...remember those.
Nothing wrong with digital though. It has made things cheaper and easier. I do have a problem though when someone tries to show me 60 pictures of their new grandson sleeping in a bed. I mean my gosh, they all look the same except for a little movement of the camera.
Great pics Karl...I love the WWII stuff as well.
