Will this EVER end?
- IF YOU HAVE THE GUT INSTINCTIVE FEELING TO TAKE A PARTICULAR SHOT, TAKE IT, EVEN IF IT SEEMS BORING.
- SIMPLE EVERYDAY ACTIONS CAN BECOME EXTRAORDINARY IN 1/125TH OF A SECOND.
- STRANGERS ARE BONDED ETERNALLY IN A PHOTOGRAPH.
- GO OUT AND TAKE MORE PICTURES, TRAVEL MORE.
- PLEASE STEADY YOUR HAND, WHY CAN'T YOU TAKE SHARP IMAGES AT 1/125TH?

And THEN, EVEN More notes to self,
- Might want to try giving a gesture such as nodding the head or tilting the head to let the subject know that you're photographing them, therefore creating a direct connection between the photographer, and the subject and therefore creating a more engaging picture. With the moment shared between the photographer and the subject.
- GO OUT MORE OFTEN YOU ANTI SOCIAL NERD.
- INSTINCTS AND FEELINGS FIRST, COMPOSITION SECOND.

EVEN More notes to self,
- WHEN DOING THE WILLIAM KLEIN APPROACH, WAIT FOR THEM TO ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING. CALM DOWN.
- DURING SUNRISE AND SUNSET, LIGHT LEVELS ARE LOWER BY 1/2 STOPS COMPARED TO MID-DAY.
- TRI-X AT EI100 WITH SHORT DEVELOPMENT TIMES HAS INSANELY LOW CONTRAST!
----------
- 22/06/09
More notes to self,
- SLOW DOWN, HAND STEADY.
- STAY CALM WHEN TALKING TO THE SUBJECT.
- AGAIN, SLOW DOWN.
- AGAIN, DON'T TAKE BORING PICTURES.
- COMPOSITION AND GEOMETRY IS IMPORTANT.
----------

Note to self,
- GET CLOSE. GET CLOSER.
- BE AGGRESSIVE.
- STAY WITH THE SUBJECT MATTER (BE PATIENT).
- GAIN ACCEPTANCE.
- GET MORE INVOLVED (TALK TO PEOPLE).
- TAKE SIMPLER PICTURES.
- SEE IF EVERYTHING IN BACKGROUND RELATES TO SUBJECT MATTER.
- VARY COMPOSITIONS AND ANGLES MORE.
- BE MORE AWARE OF COMPOSITION.
- WATCH CAMERA SHAKE.
- BE AT THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME.
- ANTICIPATE THE MOMENT.
- SHOOT FIRST, ASK LATER.
- SHOOT MORE, BUT NOT MORE JUNK.
- DON'T TAKE BORING PICTURES.
