My preference is for sunrise and morning light.Lighting
You will find the colours are warmer at dawn and sunset.Equipment
I have used a variety of cameras over the years, but am finding the quality of the LG cell phone photos is miles ahead of what I have been using since1967.Inspiration
I am a historian, and like to photograph artefacts that tell the story of our military history. Photos here: http://silverhawkauthor.com/Editing
I used to experiment with black and white photos many years ago as a student at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. Technology has progressed massively, and now I am able to edit photos for my web pages with cropping, enhancing, enlarging etc.In my camera bag
A small folding tripod is handy.Feedback
Get yourself a cell phone with a high quality camera capability. Transfer your photos often to your computer to store them, keeping extra space available on your phone. Keep a journal of where you were when you took the photo. Share a handful of good ones - not 60 or 70 at a time.
