While I've never been a professional photographer, I can say from the times I've dabbled in both photography and video projects that the work behind a great photo or video boils down to managing all the things that can go wrong.
While video work tends to also involve the tricky business of capturing quality audio, it can be challenging to find the right lighting, the right angles, and the right environment that doesn't sprinkle dust all over your lens.
And of course, that's all assuming that someone doesn't wander into the picture and wreck the shot after you've taken care of everything else.
But while the unexpected can be your worst enemy when you're a photographer, one cute story from Indiana shows that it can also be your best friend.
