PHOTOGRAPHY

Stories

A friend of mine is interested in photography.

I offered to give her some advice. She understood very quickly and could apply the new knowledge immediately!
It was a lot of information! And this is only a tiny part.
But she has potential and with regular practise she will be very fast amazing!

To summarize the most important:

Be always attentive (even without the camera). You have to train your eye like a muscle.
Be patient. If you find something interesting, stay with it longer.
Observe it from different angles.
Get closer to your subject.
Dont hurry – Take your time! Slow down, stand still – pay attention to the details.

Photography has a lot of benefits! It teaches you:

to be more attentive.
to be more present (and get out of your head)
to see regular things with different eyes
to see more much more!
to connect with other people.

And much more things!

The most interesting for me is:
You start to see people, situations, moments and the past – with different eyes (even without the camera)!
