Concentration and attention when taking pictures

I was processing some photos today. I had photographed a wild rabbit in the distance. But during processing it turned out that there is also a bird near the hare, which I'm sure I didn't notice when taking the picture. I only noticed it when I opened the photo on a big screen and it's that surprise again: Wow, what have I photographed!😃

So today I want to talk a little about attention and concentration when taking pictures. Maybe I have raised this question another time as well, because it seems to happen to me often - to photograph one thing, and then it turns out that I photographed something else or something additional to what I wanted.

And now it's this, I really don't know when I took these pictures if I really intended to photograph exactly what I did. But the fact is that when I opened these photos again, I was again: Wow, what have I photographed here 🤭

I think I love these surprises. They always add something more. The opposite of having something taken from you, a photo disappearing, for example.

And so, you take a picture of an ordinary puddle, and you get a whole frog as a bonus. Isn't it wonderful?
