How Many Pictures, to get the Right Blog Picture?

Pin It

I was asked, "How many pictures do you take to get the one you want for the blog, twitter, Facebook, etc."

Good question, so I went back and looked. 
And the answer is a LOT
Here is what I took for one post, I think twitter and Facebook, so for a post that was up for a day I took 13 pictures. 
Can you pick the one I used ???













I used this one,

 which was the 9th picture took.  
I think it's just me?? I can always do better?
