I will eventually get back and finish my "1 week-1 camera" project, but it seems like I (without knowing it) have started a new project: "Make photography fun again" :-)
It is all about not worrying about the end result but just enjoying the process. Today I brought another Canon compact camera; the 4 megapixel G3 from 2002! I shot the camera in Program mode so let the camera make all the exposure decisions... I just composed the shots
Looks like it's headed into the Portal! Great composition! I like the idea of making photography fun again. I've been in a real funk these past few months, but feel like I'm coming out of it now that summer is almost here. At least, I hope so! Have fun, Helge! :)
I think I'll join you on that ‘make photography fun again’ road. That's a real golden-oldie camera you picked up - and the photo looks just great. I like that round window.
I like your new project. Photography should always be fun but sometimes we start to take ourselves too seriously and overthink it a bit. Or at least I do. P mode is Perfect. Just relax and shoot. Continue having fun Helge
Yes, photography should be fun for sure! I am very guilty of the "it has to be good" and "satisfy everyone else besides me" syndrome. It's good to remember to just do and create and enjoy and not care so much about the rules, the competition and the feedback all the time. Good for you!
