>>3242105You're certainly correct on the mindset issue, as well as the "compose" in your head before. I'm trying to do so, but oftentimes feel I have to push myself in order to get it right. Especially with the 21mm shots I always have to push myself to get closer, but also to quickly adapt to a changing situation. At the attached shot I had it all planned out, but then he moved and I had to reframe in order to match him into the buildings. All this while being about 20cm away from him. When I flashed him, I really expected some negative feedback, but nothing happened at all. Guess being so close leads to people not thinking that I actually took a shot of them, but something behind them. Still not a good shot.
>How did you build up your instagram following?Mostly following/unfollowing and commenting. I'm a consultant and usually work on search result and landing page optimization. My employer recently offered me to work on a project with instagram (ads) and because of that, I check it at least 5 times a day. As I have to check my feed very often, I like and comment a lot whenever something catches my eye.
Regarding my output, I usually delete older shots, as I try to keep it at 36 posts (referring to the usual amount of frames on a roll of film). I also tag the shit out of newly uploaded stuff. After 1-2 days the shots went down far enough in the list at these tags and nobody cares about them anymore. At this point I delete the tags.
