No longer do we need a viewfinder. If you think you need to shoot RAW and process your pictures in Lightroom to be a professional, you’re sleeping. If your files are taking more than 30 seconds to import to your iPad after a long day of shooting up to 1000 pictures, you’re sleeping. If you think you need to go to NYC to make good street photos, you’re in a deep deep slumber. Make photos where you are now. Make photos from your soul. Ignore the advice that the photographers of the past have given you. Take selfies and start freestyle vlogging with a GoPro. Make photos, videos, panoramas, portraits, LiDAR scans with your iPhone. Now is the GREATEST time to get into photography if you are new to this art.
