I was out photographing a misty valley at dawn, and the way the light filtered through the trees made me think about how timing and precision are just as important in leading a squad as they are in capturing a perfect shot. Do you ever notice that?

You're right, it’s like waiting for that perfect glow before the mist lifts—if you strike too early you miss the moment, if you wait too long you lose it. I always find that quiet patience on the field helps me feel in sync with the moment, just like the camera does. It’s a small thing, but it keeps everything aligned.
