#58: It's better not to photograph if you are drunk

I knew I was doing something wrong..

My favorite:

"When you photograph onions, it's better to use sidelight"

 

[MIkhail]

Every advice is good there. Like I said, I would print it out and take with you in a bag. next to Leica M9 and summilux (post-aspherical, of course).

Number 26. Priceless.

Problematic of bird photography. Try to photograph the decisive moment, like when the bird is still there.

This reminds me of taking a class heavy in darkroom work, and someone getting very upset because their photograph was upside-down in the enlarger and on the paper.

last sentence kills it: "With this project I got my master's degree in FAMU - Academy of Performing Arts in Prague."

Specially love Nr. 20: Specifically shoot at objects that really exist. This advise is not an euphemism.

And all of this time I've been photographing my sausage incorrectly. Time to change my technique.
