Really good advice, and it feels doable. I noticed the same thing in Toronto.

Amazing how much difference one small change can make. Honestly, the simplest version wins for me.

The framing feels off to me. Not terrible, just not convincing. A little friction removed goes a long way. The texture and mood are lovely.

I am saving this for the next time I overthink style. The Warsaw example makes it feel concrete.

The framing feels off to me. Not terrible, just not convincing. That is where the boring checklist helps. Process photos would be fun to see.

Glad you shared it; small wins count. I would write it down before changing anything else. Great use of light and restraint.

I love this. It feels practical without pretending life is neat. That is the kind of detail beginners miss.
