Projects Make Perfect

So I'm realizing that one of my major issues is that I don't actually plan shoots... I walk around and find things I find interesting and then make them more personal with editing... I want to plan shoots and I'm getting closer to the point where I can... {finally got a tripod!}...

The point of all this is I am finally beginning Did It Productions... Me and two or more of my friends are putting together books of mixed media art with one uniting concept {concepts of design, a-z, etc...} I'm hoping this will also help me take shots with more thought for the outcome...


One step at a time

Did It

Change Vs. Improvement

Last night I was talking to one of the people who mentors me. He told me that I had in fact changed. My issue is that "Change" is not "Improvement". I do realize my style has changed. And I have no issues with where it's headed. My issue is that despite the change I see no significant improval in my skills as a photographer.

Maybe its my aversion to whats considered acceptable. I like my pictures full of grain and at angles that makes you wonder how your supposed to look at it. I like my colors bold and bright or soft and strong... gahh!!

I'm getting criticized more than I'm getting praised. I guess next step is trying to figure out how to reach the people who would like my work more that criticized.
