Becoming a good photographer in modern times
The true artist of photography knows it when the moment appears before himself that deserves to be captured to live it again. You know people who take good photos and those who just take photos because they have a smartphone. The flexibility of being able to delete and take almost unlimited photos has given such freedom to people that they randomly click many photos and hope they’ve got the one they think they will like.
When you take a photo next time, take a good look at what you really see in the viewfinder (or your smartphone screen) what all it covers before you click it. Even if you know you will love any pics of your friends because they are your friends, try to take good pictures of your friends. And guide them when they take picture of you to take that incredible shot.
How to learn to use your camera good enough? You might ask. Well, WATCH YOUTUBE! If you cannot take a course on photography, follow good youtubers who give out knowledge that change the way you take your photos next time. Even if you don’t aspire to be a photographer, I’d say be a good photographer anyway. You won’t regret it.
Once your photos start getting noticed for being good, make sure you shoot with a good camera. Since you work hard capturing that perfect picture, it will be better if it is taken with a good quality. If you use DSLR (which you should), shoot RAW and edit them, that way you can make it look the way you want before sharing or printing. You’ll get appreciation you deserve.
