>>3843651>>just stay at home and photograph backyard because im a friendless, gf-less neet with social anxiety There's other things to take pictures of than people lmao. Go hop on the train or smth and take a walk in the forest, buy extension tubes and a tripod and shoot macro at home. Get a telephoto lens and a bird feeder and go birding. Possibilities are endless. Photography is hardly a hobby for normal people these days lol. The photographer pool generally consists of.
-Specialist autists who do photography that just requires a lot of gear expertise, this includes film shooters with their own darkrooms, full spectrum shooters, wet plate shooters, madmans who focus stack hundreds of images to get one photo, etc.
-arthoe slags that just use this as an extension of their social life and pretend they're artists, they usually own like one lens lol
-boomers that just buy gear because they like it, don't actually take photos ever, maybe like once a year at a concert, jpeg only, don't even know what raw is
-pretentious fine art retards that buy Leicas even though they're not rich
-working professionals who managed to market themselves into some at least local relevance
-insecure and quiet, introverted dudes who walk around the outskirts of civilization taking pictures of rocks
Be the last one. Or you could be the first one for all I care, the amount of money you have is what determines.
