New Years Resolution

Wed Jan 21, 2009, 8:34 PM
Shoot more pictures

Has anyone ever fallen into the trap of obsessing over that next piece of camera equipment. If I only had this system or this camera body or lens or whatever, then it would be worth it to take really great pictures.

I've decided my gear is good enough. Rather than spend my time evaluating film vs digital or whatever, I'm going to spend my time taking pictures and evaluating if I was a good photographer when I took that picture.

Sure the equipment might slow me down in some things but I'm not in that big of a hurry, these are mostly just excuses. The equipment mostly just affects how big the shot can be reproduced and how convenient or speedy it was to take the shot in the first place.

So my New Years resolution is to get more pictures taken and spend more time learning from them.

:iconliquish:
thank you very much for :+fav: :date:
:iconiannewlin:
no problem, I love your stuff. Post more of it please...
:iconliquish:
thank you

I have a lot of shots, but I wouldn't post they so quickly. Maybe every day one. I don't know...
:iconiannewlin:
yeah, that is probably a good plan, maybe even every two or three days. They say it gives people more time to find your pictures. I'll just have to be patient...

Don't take life too seriously... Nobody comes out of it alive, anyway! :nod:

Art is like Love, unless it is shared,and viewed by others and appreciated, it has no mutual return, it is empty and hollow, and lonely.
