Seeking validation has been a titanic problem for me. I'm taking measures to simply not worry about numbers. I set up a schedule to upload and when I am not doing that my phone is off. Numbers are just numbers! It's hard, yet I want to continue to eliminate it from my life. I'm only … Continue reading Walking away from Validation
The Unexpected
People will either wait for you to finish taking a shot or they will simply walk into your shot. I prefer the latter but I respect both. I enjoy adding a human element to my photography regardless of the main subject is a piece of architecture.
Experimenting
Working hard to experiment more and develop my style as well as my ability with composition. Was exploring and caught the school theatre with the trees present in front. I love the Design of the building but I'm not sure I would have trees there. Have a great day, David
Light study
Been experimenting with light at various times of day. Also been doing a lot of low key photography trying to adapt to using a flash. Even read a book on the use of light in photography. It was a raining day and I decided to take a photo of the window in my room. Its … Continue reading Light study
Portraits
Growing up I hardly ever took photos of people. Being a shy introvert I took photos of nature, machines, etc. I did however, take a few photos of people at a wedding. Overall, this helped me develop taking photos of architecture and Industrial subjects. Recently, I've been taking photos of people more. My little cousin … Continue reading Portraits

Writing is a breeze at times but other times the blank plank is haunting. The first sentence has to be written a dozen of times … Continue reading One photo and One word at a time

Really want to explore contrast between black and white vs bright colors like Tim Burton achieved in Sweeny Todd. … Continue reading Changes
Different angles
I took about thirty shots of the Sacramento Tower Bridge from different angles. I do this out of habit. I try never to capture a subject straight on unless there's not a possibility of another angle or there is something in the background that I dislike. It helps my photos to have more depth by … Continue reading Different angles
Life as it is
I don't live in a big city nor do I live near downtown. So I grew up taking photos of trees, machines, animals, etc. It's what was available to me as a child. I have evolved, I know take photos of people, nature, machines, buildings, objects, etc. I am much better than when I was … Continue reading Life as it is
Courage to take shots
A while ago I might have not taken a shot like this. I would be nervous but now I've learned to capture the shot that I want in a respectable manner. I am not nervous taking shots, I even openly take shots during busy times at school. People will either walk through my line of … Continue reading Courage to take shots
