A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

What made you get into photography? (alien.top)

When I walk around, there are always things that catch my eye. It's usually colours, shapes, shadows, how the light falls in a certain way. That's how I got into photography. I wanted to learn how to capture those things, moments. Learn how to do it in a visually interesting way. Because taking a photo of an interesting subject is one thing, but taking a captivating photo is something else. So I "borrowed" my dad's dusty Nikon & started taking classes & workshops. Ten years and 3 cameras later, I'm still in love with the art.

I'm curious. Photographers, what made you start to photograph?

What is the sentiment of the phrase? Luck? lol

Yes! Being very lucky. I probably should've clarified that when talking about butts & butter, hahaha...
