To take a cool picture you don’t need hundreds of shots. You only need one, but you need it to be perfectly timed. Like when you take a picture of your brother swimming and he ends up looking like a character from a movie. Or, when the cake you made accidentally matches your counter, you’ll most likely have a spot-on image on your hands.
