Mind

right before i take a photograph, the first thing that comes to mind is how the picture is going to turn out afterwards. for example, if my photograph is going to come out blurry or clean. also maybe what is going to be in the background of my picure that i didnt see while taking it. before i take a picture what also comes into mind is making sure all of the settings on the camera is correct, and how i am holding it. all of these things could determine how the photograph comes out. your thoughts before the thought can determine how your picuure comes out once you take it such as clean or blurry or if you are going for a specific shoot such as a freeze you need to make sure it is all on the correct settings else you arent going to get the "blurred" image you need. taking the image at the correct time can also be a factor because of the freeze effect. you have to time your image correct so it comes out the way you want or need it too. another thing that comes to mind before taking a picture of mine is what i wanna take a picture of and focus my camera on. id search around the area with the lense of my camera and see what would come out for a great photograph, maybe a picture of two people laughing and captoning them at that moment of time to have a great image come out of it. theres a lot of things that i think of before taking a picture, it just depends on what im doing at the time or what im focusing on the picture to be. many things run through my head before taking a picture.
