![]() ![]() It’s a great way to gain confidence in your own choices. Different photographers walking along the same path, but everyone is seeing something different. One of the coolest things I did when I started out was to go on a shoot in a group. You might know or want to learn about the rule of thirds or leading lines, but it’s easier to shoot more intuitively and just react to what's happening in front of you. ![]() There’s a softness to the light in the morning and there is backlight.Ĭomposition-wise, I think it's cool to just experiment and don't follow too many rules. Not because I'm an early morning person, but because mornings have a certain atmosphere: the waking up of nature, the waking up of the city, of people. I discovered that I love mornings this way. There’s a softness to the light in the morning and there is backlight. Not because I'm an early morning person (not at all!), but because mornings have a certain atmosphere: the waking up of nature, the waking up of the city, of people. That way you can shoot in almost any situation, for example in the beautiful early light right before the sun rises. With the right camera you discover new possibilities with light: you can push ISO up to places that a smartphone could never reach and take full control of settings like aperture and shutter speed. Take the time to look at your images and analyse how your choices change your images. See how you can capture depth of field or movement and get creative. It can be surprising how different apertures and shutter speeds change the outcome of your photo. Shoot the same location at different apertures and ISO values, and experiment with different camera settings. Take the time to notice how changes in the light make you feel. You'll be like, ‘Wow, I can see things that I probably wouldn't have been able to see before!’Ī tip I really like to give is to visit the same spot at different times of the day and in different seasons, so you can see what the light does to a place. It can make you incredibly happy that you have been able to train your eyesight and your vision in this way. It’s cool when you notice yourself seeing things. Or go to popular spots and see if you can photograph them in a different way, rather than from the same old angle everyone’s seen before. ![]() Look for the hidden reality of a place, and you’ll find a lot of cool things that haven’t been photographed before. I’d fill the weekends with visiting local places that I’d never been to, and I discovered so many new things about my hometown! Life would be different: there’d be different people on the street, different things happening. When I started taking photographs, I had a full-time job and no camera - so I began walking to work, taking photos along the way with my phone.Įvery day was different. I'm not a photographer by training at all - travelling came first for me. Training your eye to look at things differently is the best way to start developing your own creative style. ![]()
