Last year, I got some (friendly) critique saying I always shoot wide when taking photos. So I got a long lens and started moving closer. But I gravitate to what’s comfortable, resulting in a bunch of not-exactly-wide, not-exactly-close, extra shmedium shots. Still trying. Versatility is good. But wide is beautiful, so I’ll just own it.
Things don’t just flow out of your brain. It’s not like, Hey, I’m brilliant. Show up, paper right here, bam, another banger. No—you sit and you struggle with yourself and you stop cutting your hair. I’m not cutting my hair right now. You stop shaving, like I’m not shaving right now. You remember that you can fail. I’ve failed several times. The fact that everybody else don’t see that don’t give me the right to not see it.
