   to take several pictures of something then keep the best. While focusing on   
   the pumpkin, I'd    
   sometimes overlook the fact that my shadow was in the picture, distracting   
   from the subject. Or some shots might use the light better than others to get   
   a better image of the subject.

   sometimes you get a lucky accident, like the time I took a picture of our   
   newly-constructed greenhouse just    
   as our black cat was walking past the doorway.   
      
     yes, sure.  :)   
      
     with the images i'll mostly be after when taking pictures   
   of the beans, the most important aspects are color and   
   lighting consistency.  to me those are unlikely to be very   
   artistic pictures in terms of the wider composition because   
   i want the beans themselves to be captured accurately and   
   to have a record of them for future reference.  i have   
   about 400 pictures of this sort i need to do.   
      
     once i have that figured out i can think of other   
   arrangements and composition.  :)
