There are many types of photography<\/a> out there. And honestly, there isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153superior\u00e2\u20ac\u009d genre out there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better yet \u00e2\u20ac\u201d perhaps we shouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t separate photography into different types? However at the same time, studying different photography genres is a good way to discover NEW forms or types of photography you might not yet know you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re interested in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I discovered the genre of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153street photography<\/a>\u00e2\u20ac\u009d totally accidentally. I enjoyed photographing people and street scenes, and it was maybe a year or two AFTER I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d already been shooting street photography I discovered it was actually a genre! I uploaded photos to an online forum, and people told me that they liked my \u00e2\u20ac\u0153street photography\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. Then a google search for street photography opened up a whole new world to me, which was fun, interesting, and exciting! Considering I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m very hungry for knowledge and wisdom, the information I found online helped me a ton. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thinking beyond genres <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After I discovered street photography<\/a>, I pursued it with great zeal. However at a certain point, I started to feel trapped within the genre. This was good, because I started to broaden my views on street photography \u00e2\u20ac\u201d including urban landscapes<\/a>, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153still life\u00e2\u20ac\u009d photos, or just random snapshots<\/a> of anything I witnessed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
