Photography Problems

(my photo–edited selfie)

You might have noticed that I haven’t posted quite as many photograhy photos lately. It hasn’t been that I haven’t been inspired at all, but when ever I’ve gotten an idea, I’ve been discouraged. Interesting problem, huh? Well, the problem I’ve had is that I’ve felt the photos I’ve wanted to take have no meaning. I’ve wanted to play with angles and focus in my photos lately, but all the photos I take have no purpose, no memories. So I’ve wanted to try to take more photos again, but I want to take ones with a meaning in them or a memory. I think I’m going to try to photograph people more, even though it’s awkward at first, and more places too. I feel like I genereally photograph objects and little things, so this year, a photography goal of mine is to change up that routine!

One way I want to do that is by editing more photos. It’s easy and pretty straightforward. I use Gimp on my computer and PicsArt on my tablet. Another thing I’m going to try is just taking my camera with me places. Normally I don’t want to carry Metias, so I leave him home. So for the rest of this week and next week, I’m going to try out my best to get some pictures for you guys! Does anyone else have this problem of worrying about meaning in pictures?

    I have a book about this and will give it to you if you r interested. A pretty famous photographer had the same problem and advice for others. Bet this is a temporary thing for u.

    🙂 Ok, thank you, that would be helpful! I have had a lot of inspiration for photos lately, but a bizarre camera battery and homework has been keeping me from doing anything.
