  You've given me such a boost with this regarding the old confidence issue.  As a sprightly teen I had a far greater level than I hold today as a greying middle aged bloke.  Anyway, gonna load up some more film and head out shortly to see what's what.  Oh, never made the switch to digital cameras, I prefer the slower pace of film.

  I have learned just to snap anything of interest no matter what it may be. It's fun and can thru up many surprises.

  Step 4, so true. I rarely go out shooting with another photographer. &nbsp;I love the solitude, &nbsp;it&apos;s my therapy, especially coming off a 24 hour shift....just get in the &nbsp;truck and drive and shoot. Socializing is fun and sometimes needed, but i do best when i concentrate and just be.

  One of the greatest things that ever happened to my photography was when my professor took my zoom lens, gave me his prime lens for the weekend and told me to go reshoot what I had shot the weekend prior.<br><br>This was akin to when my high school art teacher took my pencil and eraser away and made me do life drawing with a pen.<br><br>Both limitations forced me to just focus on the work rather than constantly second guessing my frame or my mark and ultimately missing the moment. Artists naturally over analyze, it is part of the process, it is what enables us to see what others may have missed. However, over analyzing can be detrimental to the process and make you unable to just make a decision. Giving yourself limitations like a prime lens or drawing with a pen forces you to just make decisions and work through them rather than constantly second guessing yourself and ending up with a forced product.

  I have learned not to worry too much about iso. But I still set the limit on my cameras to 800.

  Huge dose of information. I can&apos;t believe you have less views than channels with for example &quot;top 10 (useless) camera tricks&quot;. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
