I suppose I felt I was a failure at scenery, because things would look beautiful – a mountain and lake scene etc, but then the photos I took just seemed to be random arrangements of greens and blues…when I started paying attention to other people’s photos and more focus on what I was doing before I clicked, the photos came a little closer to reflecting the view I had enjoyed. As with anything, I guess a little effort and application helps!

I know people like Bryan Peterson or Michale Freeman might get vex when I say this but pointing and clicking isn’t bad and sometimes that is all that is needed to capture a shot worth taking. I am no expert though, so I could be wrong

I am beginning to feel that at times too much “creativity” can distort the point of taking the shot in the first place unless the point was being creative. But you have creative shots and angles in there as well

It is blog post like this one, which does more for tourism in Guyana than the Tourist Board in Guyana. The photos are extremely professional and travel magazines might be interested. Guyana is unique in that it is a hybrid of the Caribbean and South America.
