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.

Heyoo guys. I have an soul roblem. I fell like i m still bad at photography. I took over 10k photos with a Sony a6000 in 1 year and only few of them are "good". I can t get out of this felling. I just began a photography course in my town, but i still don t think my photos are good enough. I allways wonder about time spent for over 10k, more precise 11 243 shots. And i look at other photographers having only 4-5k photos taken and their photos being so good. I just don t know what to do, i am stucked in this loop...Any advices?

I’ve been taking pictures from last 20 years give or take. Photography I believe is a very personal expression. If you try to capture what u feel through your lens, it’ll have a story for everyone to see. Upgrading your knowledge will be a constant. Don’t stop there though. Yes basic composition and understanding how light falls on your subject is important. Practice what u learn. And then go ahead and break the rules. All the best.
