After following the crowd for a while, I'd then go 180 degrees in the exact opposite direction. It always worked for me.
Elliott ErwittThe thing is that when you don't carry a camera, that's when you see pictures in particular, or at least that's when you think you see pictures in particular. When you do carry it, if you do see one on the occasion that you do, you can take it.
Elliott ErwittMaking pictures is a very simple act. There is no great secret in photography...schools are a bunch of crap. You just need practice and application of what you've learned. My absolute conviction is that if you are working reasonably well the only important thing is to keep shooting...it doesn't matter whether you are making money or not. Keep working, because as you go through the process of working things begin to happen.
Elliott ErwittI'm an amateur photographer, apart from being a professional one, and I think maybe my amateur pictures are the better ones.
