Going out without having a camera in your hand is not an option at all! LOL. That is what I do if I go out. I will always carry my camera wherever I go otherwise, it feels awkward. Hmm, probably because I am so used to it that I cannot afford to leave it alone. It is a good practice as well to be honest. The more photos you take, the more you learn. You will realize certain things need to be improved such as composition and exposure.
Sometimes when I see other photos whether in the magazines or on the net, it seems very easy to say “I can do that as well” but when you’re at the real location, you just don’t know what to do. You have to think as quick as you can but creatively. It always becomes my favourite to add a little bit of the environment if I shoot outdoor portraiture. Personally, I reckon it gives more impact to the photos. Now, I begin to learn a lot more how to play around with anything around me.
I try to vary my shots by going wide and close up. Get different angles and most importantly, play with composition. I think I know now that my weakness point and need to give more focus is composition because everytime I want to shoot, it becomes difficult where should I place the subject to fit with the background or whatever that will appear in the frame.
Thanks for reading and viewing.
