Here are two mistakes I made and which would normally be in the trash by now, but then I thought, Hey you learn by your mistakes.
The first is pushing the button by accident, I was on deck late at night to try and capture this Platform we were moving along side, I knelt down to steady myself against a hand rail, took the shot, as I was attempting to get back on my feet I clicked the button, as it worked out it was better than the first shot.
The second is moving out of a cool air-conditioned room and into the heat of a summer night in Israel, then taking a shot of a AHV towing us with my lens fogged up, I could see this through my view finder but thought I’d give it a go.

Both are creative blunders. That’s what makes them unique and artistic.
Thanks Lynne.
I’ll take your mistakes any time!
That’s one of the nice’s comments I’ve ever had, thanks TR’s
Yes we do learn from our mistakes but I have to tell you I really, really like the second image. It almost looks like it came from a Lensbaby.
Thanks Edith, save money on Lensbaby and just fog up your lens. Done
Well add on your Queen lyrics “We will, we will rock you” because your mistakes rock!
Thanks Karen
great mistakes to have made
Thanks Mr Chow
I koved the concept of talkin’ about mistake so that it could be avoided in future.Mistakes are usually meant for trash – as you rightly mentioned; and in this regard , I was attending this music concert in a huge but jampacked auditorium…..I could barely click the band members…but managed few. Back home, I all I found were the legs of the band members, heads of few audiences and so on.
Yeah thats a oops.
Those are two very creative mistakes. A reminder to us all not to immediately eliminate the error shots at the time of shooting but check ‘em out first, back home on the screen. I love both of these.
Thanks Andy
