How to do Great Photography Even When Your Surroundings are Boring
How to do Great Photography Even When Your Surroundings are Boring: I have always been fascinated with great photography taken in areas that people might commonly refer to as ‘boring.’
I use the word boring because that is the specific word I most often see used as an excuse for people having trouble with their photography. Someone will say, “I wish I lived somewhere more interesting and beautiful”or “I can’t do interesting work where I live. It’s too boring.”. Can you relate to that?
What these people don’t realize is that what might seem boring and routine to them could seem fascinating to others, and by dismissing where they live they do not even give themselves a chance to try and photograph it in an interesting way. They take themselves out of the game before they even start.
