Heyoo guys. I have an soul roblem. I fell like i m still bad at photography. I took over 10k photos with a Sony a6000 in 1 year and only few of them are “good”. I can t get out of this felling. I just began a photography course in my town, but i still don t think my photos are good enough. I allways wonder about time spent for over 10k, more precise 11 243 shots. And i look at other photographers having only 4-5k photos taken and their photos being so good. I just don t know what to do, i am stucked in this loop…Any advices?
Look at the photos you think are good, identify SPECIFIC characteristics that you like. Learn to look for those characteristics and keep taking pictures of them. Look at photos you don’t like and note SPECIFIC things you don’t like and come up with a way to avoid those things. Don’t expect too many of your photos to be good. Most of them won’t be. I tend to be more selective of what I take pictures of almost as if I was using film.
When I go out I hope to get 1 or 2 good pics, and half the time I don’t even get that. Learn to enjoy the process not just the outcome. If you don’t get any good pics one day, so what, you went on a fun hike/walk still, and you have some photos that will help you identify things you don’t like and help you learn.
