2012 Resolution on RF

[raytoei]

This is my resolution for 2012:

1. I will cut down the number of "snapshots"
and strive to increase the number of keepers.
i will achieve my hit-rate of great pictures by
focusing on composition and I will shoot
only interesting subjects.

2. I will continue to bring a camera with me
at all times. Practice makes perfect.

3. I have to stop selling and buying the
same camera / lens over and over again.
