<<My main technique is to set a rig and wait for the wildlife to come
close enough, but I get a lot of garbage that way. Photographers call
it the "polyphoto method">>

I call it the machine gun technique. If you fire enough bullets you're like=
ly going to hit something. In cinema this is the shooting ratio, the amount=
 of film shot compared to what makes the final cut. The truth is that many =
of the people we think of as great photographers, great film makers, great =
composers, etc, don't necessarily start out with high ratios of great mater=
ial vs junk. But what they really are is great editors, so the audience onl=
y gets to see the great results.
