Accidental 'successes'
Discussion

Was supposed to be a test shot of pan fried salmon with herbs, so for the test shot I used the rotting herbs which were already going off in the fridge, as the shoot had been delayed. For a laugh I decided to upload anyway... Pic has sold 300 times on Shutterstock far outselling the "proper real" photo, which looked crap when cooked with fresh herbs and drizzled in butter, when compared.
What un-pre-meditated shots have you lot taken, and whats the story behind the shots

with this shot the wind at the location we had chosen was REALLY bad! models were booked and i had people up from london for the shoot so we had to just get on with it.
most of the shots are compromised by the wind and the cold that went with it but the wind definatly makes this shot. i love the way her hair has blown across here face but you still get that implied eye contact. it gives the shot a bit of energy that the others from that day just lack a bit.

was shot as jpeg BTW!

Nothing like the quality of either of the above, but whilst at chamonix I took this, literally point and click with a camera phone a couple of years ago, always been quite pleased with it, more because it's a nice picture than a skillful photo 

just a shame about the filth on the lense making those dots in the sky.

There was a small gathering watching vips being taken round donnington in a couple of different cars...wondered over for a look and with out realising the megane was right behind the little ranault gp3(?) car started snapping away on multi-shot mode....this is the best pic i got and totally shocked i got it.

Nah, it is a real person - part of a pagan festival.Yeah Ania's living on Crete atm (I think, she was in December anyway) as she'd had enough of Scotland's cold and damp
