I do occasional professional work and a lot of photo walks. And a photo trip somewhere a couple of times per year when possible. I'm rather addicted to photography. It depends on how good "great" is...I'll get a few shots that make me really happy each week as I shoot quite a lot. That might be a shot I post on social media or share with friends, like a great street portrait. But something truly great for the portfolio?...Probably 10-20 per year? Less? I haven't counted but it's not super high.

I do feel very fulfilled with my photography, though I also have so much more to learn. I can see my style even in my oldest images and I see it becoming more refined with each year. Because I snap every time I go out. Sometimes I just snap because I'm curious to see how my camera renders a patch of light or I want to play with a different aspect ratio. Each snap helps me better understand what compositions and subjects best match the feeling of inspiration that first caught my attention. It really is about just shooting more and more and more. Like any other skill.

If you shoot Fujifilm, check out Pal2Tech. It's not so much the gear reviews as the loads of info on how to set up and use your camera that are worthwhile. He does a really good job of getting into the guts of the menu options, various settings, and exactly what each feature does.
