Are You Lazy?

I am, so this is not meant as criticism, but sometimes we get lazy photographically and it doesn't hurt to double check for less than ideal habits. So, ask yourself the following questions:

1) do you get up early enough to catch the best light

2) do you use a tripod when appropriate?

3) what about cable release and or mirror lockup?

4) do you stitch when you can?

5) do you use the best camera for the job or make compromises for covenience? (within your budget)

6) do you shoot raw?

7) do you back up all shoots within 24 hours?

8) do you have a labelling/filing system that lets you painlessly find images several years and thousands of images later?

9) do you profile your monitor? Regularly?

10) do you update the images and information on your website regularly?

Hmmn, I didn't do very well, whose idea was it come up with this list anyway?
