Realised something

[Antony hayward]

I've been taking Photos for the past week for the first time ever and I've realised something it doesn't matter what anyone says about my photos be it good or bad I'll get better with time. Also being out taking photos is about more than just taking a picture, walking around looking for the photo you want to take is relaxing and its been a long time since I've been able to relax like that so with practice will come better skills but until then with photos will come relaxation.

I'm still at the stage where I think "ooh that's a nice scene (or object or whatever)" but then when I've taken the photo, I realise it's not as great as my own impression. So I either get fed up and give up, or I take lots of photos in the hopes of getting a good one. But I agree that being relaxed can help, especially if it's a hobby. We are meant to enjoy hobbies and if we don't enjoy them, we should think about whether to continue.

100% agree with you, if I take/make a photo and I really do like it then that is all that counts. With photography we are all learning and will be forever.
