My mum gave recently me some advise, in the form of a story

so while the other tourists where running around the ferry taking a hundred shots of everything

I happily sat and watched the world go by

watching the tourists snap away

Watching the light twist and change

and the scenery float by.

And for the day, I took 4 good photos

not ‘4 good ones’ but ‘4 – all good ones’

It’s not my normal approach, but it was a good one.

I might try it more often
