  1. If you want more photographic inspiration and opportunity, black-and-white is best.<\/li>\n
  2. In terms of the most versatile\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc lens, a 28 mm prime lens is your best friend.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  3. When you got nothing left to photograph, just shoot your selfie.<\/li>\n
  4. If you want photographic composition motivation, watch old-school films. For example, any film by Akira Kurosawa, or any of the film nor classics.<\/li>\n
  5. Rather than optimizing for the best camera, strive to optimize for the best shoes.<\/li>\n
  6. In my experience, the best all day carry camera is a ricoh gr 3. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  7. Any camera that collects dust on your shelf and isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t shot with all day every day, is useless.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  8. The ideal number of multiple subjects to photograph is three. Strive towards triangle compositions.<\/li>\n
  9. My three favorite photographers of all time include Henri Cartier Bresson, Josef Koudelka, and Richard Avedon. The three black-and-white masters.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  10. The best way to improve your photography is to walk more. Perhaps best to use your walking tracking app to see how many steps you walk in a day, and accord that with your photographic productivity.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  11. Better to shoot a bad photo than no photo.<\/li>\n
  12. The best photo you have shot should be easily recallable in your mind.<\/li>\n
  13. The best way to become more innovative and your photography is via negativa: that is, to delete your Instagram.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  14. With COVID-19, the best place to travel and shoot street photography is Mexico City.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  15. The more photos you shoot in a day, the happier you will become.<\/li>\n
  16. Buying a new iPad is a better investment than buying a new iPhone.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  17. To best way to study the compositions of other master photographers, is to trace over their photos. I recommend using the Procreate app on iPhone or iPad.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  18. Approach your photography as if you were already a billionaire.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  19. The best way to spread your influence as a photographer is to start your own blog, and to post every single day. Ideally, several times a day.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  20. The best way to think about the future of photography is to think about the past of photography.<\/li>\n
  21. How to know if your photos are good or not: ask yourself, will these photos still ring an emotional feedback 300 years from now?\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  22. No photography project is ever finished\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc. All photography projects are always a work in progress, and always in flux.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  23. There is no right or wrong in photography, only tips and suggestions.<\/li>\n
  24. Going on on the photography road trip is a very productive practice.<\/li>\n
  25. Ultimately digital photography is superior to film photography. However, studying and practicing film photography will make you a better digital photographer.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  26. Do you never really know how you feel about a photograph, until 10 years later.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  27. If you can make one memorable photo in your lifetime, your job as a photographer has been justified.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  28. Never ask the opinion of another photographer about your photographs, until you have consulted your own.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  29. What is photography composition? Knowing what to subtract rather than add to the frame.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  30. Buy books, not gear.<\/li>\n
  31. Best to shoot photos while you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re hungry, and praise of intermittent fasting during the day when shooting photography. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bc<\/li>\n
  32. When in doubt, just shoot it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
