Before and After

Composition remains one of my worst skills. I usually shoot very instinctively, and unfortunately my instincts are not all that great.

Often I'll shoot out the car—it's no-look shooting, don't worry; I tape the lens at infinity and don't consult the viewfinder—using the 24mm. It's fast enough, and the wider field of view gives a few more options for cropping. Moreover, the exposure is completely manual, which adds a bit of randomness—it's not adjusting to changing lighting conditions. The exposure is sometimes pretty interesting.

I am usually too lazy to edit photos, but I made an exception in this case.
