If you really want to get those creative juices flowing, it's worth putting some constraints on the tools you use. When I first started out in photography, I was all over the place and really dive deep into having the lately and the greatest gadget. I thought that with an arsenal of equipment at my disposal, I could bring any wild idea to life. But overtime, I came to a realisation: by limiting myself to just one camera and one lens when heading out on a shoot, I was able to capture images that I never could have imagined before.
In my humble opinion, having too many tools at your fingertips can actually stifle your creativity. With a plethora of options like different film types, long exposure techniques, and even Polaroid cameras, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. You might find yourself unsure of where to focus your attention and which direction to take. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting that you should never expand your camera collection. What I'm saying is that by sticking with one trusty camera and one versatile lens for an extended period of time, you'll be amazed at what you can create. So why not give it a go? Embrace those limitations and let your creativity flourish! DD.
