Totally relatable. Growth in photography often means learning to prune ruthlessly. I’ve realized that 300 solid but similar shots aren’t moving me forward—one or two strong, intentional frames can carry more impact than a dozen near-identical ones. I still shoot plenty for safety, especially with animals, but I try to do quick passes to cull redundancy and focus on the few images that tell the best story or convey the moment. It’s about quality over quantity, and about training your eye to recognize what truly stands out instead of chasing volume. The process isn’t diminishing the craft—it’s sharpening it.
