Move until the lines rest on her, wait for the dashes to turn green, and shoot. **HOW IT WORKS** • Pick a composition — portraits, travel in Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Hong Kong and Europe, shots of him, home, night and outfit looks, couples, fur babies, and family • Align the dashes — they turn green as your subject locks in • All green?
