It's past midnight and I'm laying in my bed doing some nightly thinking, (with cats occupying pretty much the whole mattress D8 ) But then I thought, why not write about all this? I have never shared something similar with you guys, but I hope you'll find it interesting and thought provoking for some discussion in the comment section! :>
Okay here goes!
Some of you already know, but I started out with photography last year and I'm really passionate about it, even though I'm pretty sucky at it and I can't afford the equipment I want.
I mostly do portrait photography of all kinds of different cosplayers. Which is suuuuuuper fun! But during this, I often hear people saying they "love my camera". Which makes me feel somewhat useless. I mean, my gear is cheap. It's just about what everyone else can get.
And here I went around thinking it's all about practice and technique.
I mean, I once thought that equipment makes the photo, but I've actually had the opportunity to play around with super expensive gear and that didn't make me into some badass pro photographer. Nope! I'm still at my current level.
I'm not saying that with talent you can make it pro with a iPhone or something. (Though you can talk some pretty neat photos with that iPhone if you know angles and all that stuff necessary for a professional photographer XD) And I'm not saying this to go all QQ or something. No, I'm just stating my side of this. What are yours?
