You MUST Shoot Every Day… Every Single Day!
There’s no secret to perfection: you need to practice. It’s as simple as that, but not all people have the courage that’s needed to
realize that the difference between their current skills and what they can accomplish is simply put because of their laziness.
You must spend several hours behind the camera, and learn to love it. You need to love the struggle and live by it, this is how your skills will become better. Your hard enough will pay off eventually, you just need to stand still and keep practicing, even if at some point it becomes boring. And every now and then, you can try to innovate, so your practice doesn’t become boring.
Look… See The Light
The first thing you should do before attempting to raise your camera, is to see where the light is coming from, so you can use it for
your own benefit. I’ve been amazed to see how many photographers avoid this excellent tip, and I don’t understand why. If you know where the light is coming from, then you can use it for your own advantage and take better photos.
From now on look at this little yet important detail, because this will make a lot in favor of your photos.
