A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Self-conscious in public part 2 (alien.top)

I made this post the other day about being self-conscious in public.

Thanks for all of the advice, some really good ideas and words of encouragement!

So, today I decided to go into the city and try again.

I was recording with the gopro and taking pictures. I said before going out that my aim today was to go out, get used to people looking and probably feel a little awkward 🙃.

Well the good news is I did it and I'm still alive. Through myself in at the deep end. I've been up, down the high street and round the Christmas market.

Downside I didn't get any pictures haha. Felt a little nervous to take them, even so my camera was mostly up 🤦🤷‍♀️.

I think next time, I'll feel even more comfortable hopefully. Felt like I was rushing around a little day.

I'll maybe plan my walking route and have an intention of what to shoot or at least an idea (that was a suggestion previously).

Sorry to ramble, just wanted to share.

Exactly. And the people around you who may be judging you? They aren't creating shit. So keep that with you
