To shoot or not to shoot

Ardor and Passion

I often face this situation, where a scene is unfolding in front of my eyes and it could be a great photographic moment, but at the same time, you care for the safety of the subjects and the situation that is there. The heart says to do one thing, and the mind something else.

It is in these situations when you pause and more often than not, just end up saying, "Some shots are best taken with the eye."
