On average what would you say is your success rate when you go out to shoot? And what’s your experience level?
For myself who has a passion for photography but zero formal training and only purchased my first real camera less than a year ago, I’d say 1% of the pictures that I take are “good” or at least to the point to where I’d share them.
I know a lot comes from just going out and taking pictures but I feel like the gaps between when I go out and take pictures and actually sit at the computer and look at them is so spread out that I can never remember what I did or was thinking last time I was out shooting
Thanks for the offer. I took a tripod but only used it when my wife was sleeping in. Helpfully, she slept in at Kaikoura, Wanaka and Queenstown.
That’s a shame you missed the awe inspiring beauty of Hamilton’s high street at 3am on a Saturday.
Visited Hamilton. One photo is a semi-keeper. The Renaissance Garden. The second - a panoramic photo of the food court didn’t make the cut. Sadly, we needed to get to Rotorua by nightfall. Looking forward to seeing the 3am shots though!
Ya know, I’ve been to about 50 major cities in my life and have only been offered meth precisely once - in Rotorua at a red light when I was waiting to cross the street to the lake and a van pulled up and said “hey bro, do you want some P, bro?” I said no thanks and he said “sweet as all good” and drove off.
A drunk hamiltonian searching for some kebab or overwarmed pie is something you won’t find in a zoo and an beautiful testament to the diversity of our fair land.
