Been watching a lot of movies with A1 cinematography. Not only for the stills to use but learning camera movement also. S**t color grading too. I'll make a list of the movies I'm watching and post it if you interested.

Some frames from the past 2 weeks. One thing I have to learn is being intentional and wait for what I'm trying to invision. I'll be out early tomorrow a.m. downtown Raleigh with the camera again. Still searching. Still seeking. Not done. Job not finished.

Frame the frame. Browsing through some Saul Leiter photos and saw this frame. Reminded me of what I just saw on the photos. Took the shot.

There is only you and your camera. The limitations in your photography are in yourself, for what we see is what we are.

Chose a color.
Find a pattern.
Frame the shot.
Release the shutter.

When your color grading is starting to look like movie stills. Just one step into the right direction. Moving forward even if it one step at a time.

Finding my visual style. Slowly. When in doub, shoot through something.

I complicate a lot of s**t. Overthinking it. Sometimes you gotta make it plain and simple. Just chase the light, shadows,color then compose.
