What is your default move when photos gets messy

> Tiny progress is still progress.

That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where dogs stopped feeling new.

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. photos got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

I picked Maybe later, mostly because it feels easiest to live with. My only addition is to make the first step visible.

Maybe, but the tradeoff seems bigger than the post suggests. That is the kind of detail beginners miss.

Maybe later got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. I noticed the same thing in São Paulo.

That sounds great until you add children/pets/deadlines.

Surprised more people aren't choosing Only with help. It seems like the practical answer. I would test it for 6 days before deciding.

That is a good boundary.

I am mostly here for the follow-up. It sounds small, but the setup matters.

Surprised more people aren't choosing Only with help. It seems like the practical answer. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability.
