It was a rather unique set of clouds, and pretty colors in the sky. I justcouldn't help myself.Editing

Now I have my Canon 1300D with several zoom lenses, and filters, as well as my Pixel 2 phone which takes incredible pictures.Feedback
Whatever you decide to shoot with, be passionate about it. Look for unique angles. Try to find a unique perspective. Take more photos then you think you'll need so you'll have several to work with later. I am always thinking, "Oh that would be a great shot"... When I find something photo-worthy, I start snapping pictures with whatever I have available. Sometimes there isn't time to set up a tripod, or to get my manual settings set up the way I want, in the case of a sunset's colors changing too quickly. In that case I'll just use my phone. Once I shoot my photos, sometimes a hundred of them at a time, then I'll go through the best later, and use my editing apps to bring out the best features and details in the photos. It is easier than ever these days to take a decent photo with all of the technology out there. However, to make it a great photo, you have to have a creative angle, know how to edit properly, and try to make it your own. I am still learning, and I'm still a work in progress. But I love taking photos. I'm am very passionate about it, and I hope that shows through my work.
