Shooting Through The Scene
You can’t expect to take just one photo from a moment and get the best image possible – it just doesn’t happen like that! Instead, ‘shooting through the scene’ is a vital technique in order to capture the best moment we can; here are some ‘This is How’ articles by our TiR members exploring this concept:
