Remember, you may take a hundred shots and only come up with 1 or 2 good ones. When you see a great shot someone took realize there may be quite a few rejects behind it and you don't see!

I do the top 2, im good at mimic-ing so thats generally my inspiration.

Still keeps me interested and helps me learn manual settings!

Thanks for the advice!

Amusingly i have a picture for the natural framing assignment providing its within time but i am defo going to get another by the weekend!
