whats your preferred approach for putting up and collapsing a tripod personally i like to unfasten everything then pull each leg one by one. back the other way just push them all in at once and lock up

hard to believe but scientists theorise that lens may be larger than an original xbox

Walking around truly is the common denominator among photographers

some may tell you that reading about photography will make you better too but they are forgetting that a picture is worth a thousand words

I think when you capture an image with a camera you are often taking something. Perhaps it isn't material but especially when it's a portrait you can be making use of something that doesn't belong to you. I think recognising the politics which can be inherent to that is important. Regardless of what language you use there is a certain responsibility that should be taken in representation

i think i would more or less echo what has already been said. i think that over time u will find things that are interesting to you and gravitate toward them and it is impossible to avoid picking up bits and pieces from the other photography that you see. if you have more commercial goals in mind you will probably gravitate towards the things which end up being commercially / critically succesful. there is the concept of a movement in art and life where different people come together and bring their own skills and point of view to a common project. i think you can definitely engage with that and trying to follow along is a great way to learn. if you don't want to get lost in the crowd you will need a distinctive "voice" and the platform neither of which come easy unless you are lucky
