2 reasons Dana,

One, I have never **conscientiously** done a stall recovery without
immediate corrective power adjustment after wings level and two, there
was a cloud deck below me.

I obviously recover from stalls just fine since I am here to share my
experiences :-)

In other words, just because I recovered from the stall doesn't mean I
stop flying the plane hence safety reasons were first and foremost.
Operating a camera in my eyes is not flying the plane.

I also feel (for me) to have all tools in my hands when doing unusual
attitudes other then straight and level and standard turns. This
means my hand should be on the throttle, not the camera. YMMV of
course.
