Be a good photographer

The novice photographer can take good pictures only in good conditions -- bright sunlit beaches and mountains. The expert photographer can take a good picture even in poor conditions. He knows how to adjust the camera settings and even if outside light is not okay, the picture will come out well.

Neither does a good photographer look for only beautiful faces to photograph. Award-winning photos are those of unusual nature, where the photographer's insight and skill has brought beauty out of a mundane setting.

The mind is infinitely more complex than a camera, but it is only a mechanical device, like a camera. Let us learn how it works, inside out, so that we are able to adjust it as needed and to see the world brightly in all conditions and at all times.

And when the lighting gets too bad, let's use a flash and brighten up the world ourselves.
