Timing is Everything

This photo perfectly illustrates why timing is everything in photography. You can have the most perfect scene arranged, you can have the most perfect light ready but if your players aren't ready to perform or you are a moment too late then shots like this will be lost forever.

To help capture these kinds of moments, I tend to set my camera to take sequential photos and will just hold down my shutter button. It requires more cleanup afterwards but if you end up with a winner like this then it is most definitely worth it.
