What I wish I knew before trying street before coffee
This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. photos got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.
I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.
Context: I am not an expert, just someone trying to make Photography feel less intimidating. I wrote down what worked, what felt awkward, and what I would do differently next time.
