What sort of photographer do you think you’reDo you just take photos for trophy shots?
Do you love taking photos of every and anything, or what do you like taking photos of?
How did you learn, what you now know about photography, or do you still think of yourself as a novice?

Total novice and if it comes out right(which it normally does), I really do not have a clue how I arrived at it all.
I do like to take pictures, but I have to be very very taken with the subject matter to inspire me to do so.
kind regards Jeff

I'm a novice to, but i do like taking picture`s of just about anything.....
i do love trophy shot`s, capturing that fishy moment for someone, and making sure they have a pic to do them and there capture justice.

As long as I can remember iv loved taking photos, with film I found it was exciting looking for the first time to see how they came out!
Iv never been shown or told what to do, just tried out different things/ settings to see what came out best.
I have been told I take a good photo, have an eye for it, but im always willing to listen to comments and well come constructive criticism.
I will take a photo of most things, if only to see what it comes out like, but my love is nature / landscapes / sport (when I can)
Just starting to get into Macro.

i got into it a bit now, on a tropical fish forum thing, everyone was posting mint close ups of fish, and i had a go, bloomin hard,
but i do occasionally get a couple of gooduns, but you need to play with settings etc so you do teach yourself...
but ye, just enjoy it and get a few half decent ones, but i never do the same thing twice haha
self takes are getting there

Re: What sort of photographer do you think you’reDo you just take photos for trophy shots? NO
Do you love taking photos of every and anything, what do you like taking photos of? I will take a shot of anythink that catches my eye
How did you learn, Still learning
what you now know about photography, I know very little Technicaly
but I know I have a good eye for a shot
do you still think of yourself as a novice ? in some ways yes but others no
I think having a good eye and a good camera is half the battle

I see myself as a progressive pro, photography moves at such a rate i dont think anyone can be 100% up to speed with goings on.
The more you understand the equiptment you use the more time you can spend on looking for the perfect shot.
One thing i do know is since going (Pro) i view things in a very different perspective.
Wild life is my main passion but i do love landscapes the more obsure the better!!!
How do i learn i watch, read, listen to advice and most importantly get out there and do!
