Hi guys,
So I recently bought myself my first DSLR, and wanted to take photography a little bit more seriously.
Are there any general advice from all the otai2 here that you could give to a lowly amateur like me?
I mainly enjoy taking photos of architecture, a bit of landscape and a little bit of street photography.
And one more thing about street photography, how do you get around taking pictures of random strangers without coming off as a creep, or having them going hostile / confrontational when you take pictures of them?
I was originally thinking about getting cheap, simple business cards printed out and carry it around with me when I go out taking pictures, so if anyone asked me what I'm doing I could show them the card.
But I thought the idea was a bit overkill or maybe even a little bit pretentious for someone like me with no experience and just starting out building a portfolio to have a business card.
So what do you guys think?
What camera do you have right now, a mirrorless or DSLR? naah, I am consider myself as an amateur as well. You can always check many threads here for those wanted to trying out what photography is. But most discussion posted few years back, but the ilmu shared are still there.
