When you do your research write down whatever interests you. Whatever stimulates your imagination. Whatever seems important. A story is built like a stone wall. Not all the stones will fit.

A still photograph is something which you can always go back to. You can put it on your wall and look at it again and again. Because it is that frozen moment.
