2 Oh yeah, good pictures are rather difficult to catch, so it's just wonderful that digital cameras allow you take and manage thousands of pictures in a row, so if failing to take a picture on the first try you don't loose anything. Yet taking professional pictures takes months of studying and years of practice, plus a certain visual creativity.
