Photography has helped me grow as a person and has given a purpose to my life. It has been a mirror that has allowed me to gain a better understanding of myself and the world around me........
Never be afraid to try something you have never tried before. The worst that could happen is that you end up with a bunch of crappy images. So what? Delete them and move on. That by the way leads me into the second piece of advice I would like to give, never be afraid to use the delete button (or throw away the negatives if you shoot analogue). Keep the good images. Forget about the rest and keep never stop developing.......
I read a statement by a local photographer years ago when digital was just gaining a foothold and he said "Digital is the best thing that ever happened to photography and the worst thing to ever happen to photographers". I would have to say that is absolutely true.......
