I was in heaven.\u00a0 This is still true today.\u00a0 I am in my &#8220;happy place&#8221; when I have my hiking boots on, a backpack with lenses and tripod and my trusty Nikon!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is one thing you have learned that has improved your photography? \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>What I have learned: to be open to new techniques.\u00a0 By listening and watching the pros I pick up not only the BIG ideas, but also the little tips and tricks.\u00a0 Photography is a talent\/skill where you never stop learning and experimenting.\u00a0 I have also learned not to be stingy with my shots.\u00a0 This is NOT FILM!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advice you\u2019d give to others wanting to grow in their photography skills: \u00a0<\/strong>My advice to others is to travel, travel, travel with the pros.\u00a0 Or to take classes and workshops with the pros.\u00a0 Also, follow the pros on instagram or facebook and look at what they shoot.\u00a0 Then, practice, practice, practice.\u00a0 Shoot, shoot, shoot.\u00a0 R&amp;D (rob and duplicate) is OK.\u00a0 Then listen to your own inner creativity which we all have!<\/p>\n<div>My example is my first night photography.\u00a0 I have always avoided shooting at night, but I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it.\u00a0 I shoot not only for the result but for the experience of the shoot.\u00a0 Shooting at night causes one to slow down even more.\u00a0 And slowing down and feeling the experience is so essential for me.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>My next efforts will be toward shooting people in their natural environment.\u00a0 Street scenes and capturing the story is something that inspires me.<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-928\"
