Inspired

Recently read an article by a very renowned photographer, and it really makes you think twice before getting ANOTHER lens for your DSLR.

Actually, it’s not that i have a DSLR, but the truth is, taking pictures has always been about the PICTURES and not about your camera. It’s about the composition and the colour, not about your f stops and lens zoom.

I have to admit that with a lousy camera its harder to do stuff like taking pictures in the dark properly / get exceptional bokeh / get like super up close shots / get shots with very good colour representation…. BUT, having a complicated camera just turns your picture into crap actually.

And so, before i happily save up enough money to go get myself a decent cam, i think it’s important to get the idea right again – taking pictures, not playing with your camera. which reminds me, i can actually do that with my phone
