You cannot accurately remember color.

If you don't have a camera, the best thing you can do is describe how great it looked.

Remember that most people (those who are not photographers) don't even see the things that you missed. Many don't even look. Ergo, you are way ahead of the game.

You must not think of yourself as looking at the stage from the audience. You must think of it as theatre in the round and look at it from all sides.

As you see something that yo want to shot and it's bearing down on you, it's important to start framing long before the subject gets close to you. The light will reveal itself possibly long before you want to take the image, but you have to wait until the picture comes to you, and if you've been anticipating carefully when the subject will be in position, the background will have been figured out in advance.

Allow yourself to lose your way.

Each picture you take has power as long as it brings experience to the person who’s looking at it.
