Say the famous and somewhat worn phrase that “practice makes the teacher”. Sounds a little nostalgic, I know. Even more so when we talk about it in a world where speed is an element that practically governs the lives of millions of people, for better or worse, when we talk about a good photo or even a good photo shoot, this rule certainly applies. , no matter how strong our resistance is sometimes.
We know that customers’ desire for results is a lot of pressure. We also know that the increasingly competitive and restricted market, such as photography, is also pushing. In addition to the constantly changing photographic equipment, the feeling of “falling behind”?know-how and a number of other elements?
But stop for a second. Arrested? Breathe? Now reason with me
-What works of genius do you know that were done with a “magic trick”, which surprise you by the time invested even without being planned or inspired?
-What good photography did not require a good study of natural and artificial lighting, the type of lens, the angle, in short, a complete study of the landscape?
-How do you think the big names of today and the history of photography have perfected their techniques: take half a dozen photos or develop a clinical look from a myriad of images?
These are a little simple questions, but to deliver albums, requested projects or even publish as quickly as possible in your portfolio, we have simply ignored them.
Pass a concept as basic as wise, as patience
The art of observing, analyzing, thinking so that after following the steps necessary for the presence of a well-structured inspiration, you get a good photograph and, most likely, some of them with your camera.
The “EXPRESS world” in the art of image exists only when it is time to reveal it to the world, not when it is time to reveal it with your eyes.
