I’m not talking about creating the masterpiece of the century, but being able to not just look but see and realise the aesthetic/interesting parts of something and capture that.
I’ve been gifted a personality package of massive overthinking and validation seeking, and ever since I see that, I’ve been working a lot to let go of the inner discussion.
I’ve been learning about photography and practising it, but I still don’t feel that “see, not look” thing when I try to make a picture. My pics are mid, safe to say. A friend of mine, who unlike me can easily point out the potential for a great photo, said I either have an eye for this or I don’t, and also I’ve always heard about these “born talents”, and it got me thinking that I might just have to accept that I just don’t have the skill to create something pleasung.
How do you see this?
