South Dallas, Texas. If you are curious, canon r50 and ttartisan 25mm f2 manual lens. And a godox ia32 flash used in some of them. Just a casual walk. Will probably include some of these in my online portfolio.
Connemara Nature Reserve in Texas. I posted this before and got a lot of good responses but when I was deleting another post on my profile I mistakenly deleted this one. Hopefully we can get some new and old interactions again.
Why do photography YouTubers act like anything above f/2.8 is illegal? Every beginner gets fed the same formula: get a prime ASAP and shoot everything wide open.
Wide apertures are great, but not every photo needs super shallow depth of field and a background melted into oblivion. Try shooting at f/8 once in a while. You start noticing more of the scene, the environment, the lines, the light, and the relationship between the subject and the space around them. It gives the photo a different kind of character instead of relying only on blur to make it look interesting.
Photography isn’t just a competition to see who can blur the background the most.
