Photography Aphorisms<\/h1>\n

An aphorism is a short, poetic saying, distilled with philosophical insight and wisdom. Here are some of my favorite photography aphorisms that inspire me (from my memory):<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. When in doubt, click. <\/li>\n
  2. Shoot 25% more than you think you should. <\/li>\n
  3. You must milk the cow a lot to get a little bit of cheese. – Henri Cartier-Bresson<\/li>\n
  4. If your photos aren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t good enough, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re not close enough. – Robert Capa<\/li>\n
  5. Once you start laughing and crying with your subjects, then you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve started to make progress as a photographer. – Weegee<\/li>\n
  6. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s better to take a shitty photo than no photo. <\/li>\n
  7. When in doubt, ditch. <\/li>\n
  8. When in doubt, throw it out. <\/li>\n
  9. When you think you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got the shot, you haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t got the shot (yet). <\/li>\n
