What is the one thing that has made you a better photographer?
Aug 1, 2013 07:08:04 #
Learning the meaning behind iso, Shutter, and Apreture. Once you fully understand these you will immediately begin to get better. But it does take Pratice, Pratice, and more Practice. :-)
Before I went to school and a took a Professional Photography course I watched tons of YouTube clips and read plenty of blogs to try and touch myself how to take better pictures. I can honestly say going to school was a great move and being taught by a professional in the field was an awesome experience.
I'm not a pro yet, but I feel and see myself getting better and better each day I go out and shoot.

I try to find subjects I really like or are passionate about and then I take pictures of it.

2 things for me - a full appreciation and knowledge of the exposure triangle, and the ability to "think" about what kind of pic I want to achieve - composition !
I am still trying to get my head around the exposure triangle.... Thank you for the advise craggycrossers :)

This site has helped me to grow leaps and bounds, with a little chuckle occasionally.
Thank you all.
P.S.
I look at my work 4-5 years ago and wonder why I stuck with it.

Yes this sight is amazing. I am probably at the same stage you were 4-5 years ago. Can only hope in the future I look back with the same opinion you have of your work. :)

For me it has been and still is practice practice and some more practice.
I also try to think outside the box. New angles.
