As you often don't want to be seen as a “stupid” tourist taking too many photos you just take one—but later on you'll be annoyed about this.
So the motto is: take more than one shot; throwing away later is easy, taking shots again often not. Esp. if you have a digital camera (that doesn't mean just to snap without thinking ;-)…
The thing is there are _thousands_ of photos of the Lions Court, most of them probably better framed or lit! :-)
