What is the most important thing about photography?

Key points of photography:

I made such a classification about shooting-shooting impulse, theme selection, camera technology, shooting composition and post-processing. These five parts are the focus of shooting. Actually, I don't think the last four points are that important. The most important thing is "shooting impulse". This key point is too important and should be well protected.

You know, sometimes doing something requires us to have a primitive impulse. This primitive impulse is really important. A few years ago, I had a primitive impulse to photograph everything I saw. The computer is almost full of pictures, but now I seldom have such an impulse. I don't want to try again. After all, "success has been tried since ancient times", multi-shooting, high-frequency operation and the improvement of natural ability are also a natural process.

When writing the above words, I suddenly thought of two points, which shows how casual and unreliable the words are. Or the speed of words is not as fast as that of thinking. Of course, the words presented are much more credible than the jumping thoughts.

The way to see the world:

Shooting is actually the way we look at the world and things. Really great works bring us a brand-new perspective. Although the subject matter is very common, you can still see different feelings, emotions and even shocks. This is entirely the photographer's own unique perspective and the unique charm of his work.

If you pay attention, the next time you see an interesting picture, you can try to analyze the photographer's perspective, and you will find that many perspectives are unique. I also find that photographers and snipers are sometimes a bit like each other. Find a special angle at the beginning, then wait patiently for the desired picture to appear, and then press the shutter to complete the task.

Do not label:

Labeling is certainly a good thing, which can save us a lot of energy. This is the power of labels. However, labeling makes it impossible for us to understand a thing well, form a lot of solidified thinking, and miss many beautiful and interesting things.

If you want to know more and better about a thing, you need to have a strong ability to deconstruct the original label of the thing at these times, which requires a lot of energy, constant subdivision and curiosity until you get the ideal picture we want. If we can find differences in what we are used to, there will be an exaggerated effect, similar to the "reasonable and unexpected" effect.

In my opinion, the most important points about photography may be the above three points.
