Thank you for this comprehensive topic discussion. Thank you for saying it out loud that sometimes you take a pic and don’t get inspired by it. It will help me not to feel a failure when I don’t like the result

Great job Will Saunders. You did exactly what the video was intended. Great tips and inspiring.

Shutter speed and the change of perspective tips are stand ours for me, it’s different and not so typical of what you would normally see from a standard shoot like this. That difference makes those tips more significant imo

[@gerryphilpott9766]

Thanks, very nice way to break it down. Not something I have done, but great tips that can apply to most things with just a slight tweak. Change perspective was the most helpful for me as it is the one thing I need to remind myself all the time and nice to see it in action.

I am heading out to outdoor dance event this evening in Cape Town. So ill def take not the shutter speed, I always thought having a blur photo meant that the photo was bad, but i will try and use it correct this time
