Yeah he's my favourite, but he even says on the gear ones he's sorry but he's excited about it, plus doesn't go deep into the specs but more how his photos have changed due to it.
His thumbnails are also click bait style, until you find out they are done sarcastically.
I've been photographing around a year too, I like some of my photos but I'd not consider any of them good in comparison to people who have been photographers for years.
They're good enough for me for the first year, and I enjoy the act of taking the photo.
A photographer I follow says that one photo a month worthy of going in his portfolio is a normal aim, and he's been going far longer and does it as a full time job.
