Sometimes you walk out the door, and you see this. Of course, everyone will grab a camera as these did at a recent The Carter Center in Atlanta event.

Everyone here is going for their smartphone camera.

I could zoom in with the AF-S NIKKOR 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR and get a much better shot than my phone’s camera.

I had my camera at the RQN Subway in New York at 34 Street – Herald Sq Station. I loved the music, which made me stop and enjoy a minute.

I also had a tremendous treat today. I visited with Brad Smith, the director of photography for Sports Illustrated. I dropped off some Chick-fil-A sandwiches from the Grand Opening this weekend in NYC. I also brought him a few of the Chick-fil-A Cows.

Since I had my cameras and the Nikon SB-900, I got a nice photo for Brad to keep and for me to have as well.

All this is to remind you some of the best photos are the unexpected moment. Will you be ready?
