Those are great ideas @lindsay thanks so much! I had never heard of the Zine challenge or Mixam but this is very inspiring!

Thank you. That's a good point. I will try to approach it in a more professional and strategic way.

Thanks a lot, @StephenM ! I would greatly appreciate your feedback. I noticed you wrote an article about understanding photographs some time ago, and I plan to read it carefully. Please feel free to use the contact form on my website to share your thoughts.

Very interesting insight, thank you. What’s or what would be your approach for awards competitions with professional jury? I don’t want to alter any of my « work » to please a wider audience. I would be very happy with a small niche audience.

What I meant was more like a ratio « 8 out of 10 » and while I agree with you, I will never even come close to these numbers. So what should I do. Sometimes you have to do with what you’ve got. I mean the feedback I am gonna get from this forum is gonna be subjective as well. There are different...

I believe both types of feedback are valuable. I came to the forum to get genuine, constructive feedback, but Instagram can provide useful data as well. For example, if 10 people see a photograph and 8 of them like it, that's a good indicator of its impact/quality imo, or at least that people...

@benc98 I've been taking photos for about five years now. Since I have a full-time job, a family, and a baby, I haven't spent thousands of hours on it, so I still consider myself relatively new. Until very recently, I hadn't shared any of my photos, so I'm also new to exposure. But I haven't...

Hi everyone, Thank you for your messages and for helping me understand the community guidelines. First, apologies about the links. I reviewed the terms and conditions, but I clearly missed the part about not sharing them. I won't be posting any links again in the future. Regarding the...

Thanks for the feedback. I agree, the main reason is that I am truly terrible at writing and I have found AI to be kind of disappointing with that. I am planning on working on that soon… but time is a scarce resource at the moment. But surely that should not be discouraging people to follow me...

Hi @ancient_mariner Apologies if I have given the wrong impression. It is true that by posting, I am hoping to get some engagement I would not be able to get anywhere else. Traffic or followers are far less valuable to my eyes than actual feedback and advice from the community though.

Thanks all, that's what I figured! There isn't a one-size-fits-all answer. Should you choose the medium first, or focus on the creative idea and see where it takes you? I guess it’s like songwriting. You can write a catchy tune specifically for radio with its format in mind, or you can create...

Thanks you all for your replies! I will find some specific example but tipically stock photos.

I'm more interested in understanding how to achieve maximum definition and use it appropriately, rather than doing it indiscriminately.

Hi everyone! I'm a photography enthusiast who just launched a website and Instagram page to share my work. I'm really excited to connect with the photography community and learn from others. Links removed - can be added to user signature after further involvement in TP discussions I'm...

Hi everyone, I keep saying photos (including photos taken at night) that look very very high definiiton, so high that you could almost think and AI made it. I don't seem to be able to replicatre the result with Lightroom. The equirement is probably much better than mine but am I missing any...
