It is easy now to just fire off 30 or 50 shots knowing you'll likely get lucky with one or two. Post production software makes even bad camera jocks look good some of the time.

I don't take 30 or 50 photographs thinking ONE will be good. Often I have 30 great photographs all at different angles... I understand the workings of My camera enough to know that I can take ONE shot and it will be a good one. I take the time to get that great shot without just "pushing a button" ... if I have to take 50 photographs to get a good one, I am not understanding many things about photography. I do this for a living so I have a grasp on what settings to use to get that great shot.. the first time.

I know what you mean. There are a lot of people who think because they have the equipment they are taking great photos. It has become easy to pick up a camera and snap away. Having talent and an eye ... a 'gift' for this makes the difference.
