How do you find your "thing" in photography? I've

Get into deadpan landscapes

Do you have money and time to travel?

Do you have the money to build a photo studio?

Do you have the social skills to photograph pretty women?

Seems like photography is simply not your 'thing' at all.

I hate traveling. Who on their right mind would sit and wait on an airport for 3 hours, then sit in a crampet plane for 9 straight hours, go into horrid climate with severe security concerns only to catch a diarrhea from the horrible 3rd world food, and then pay over 1000 dollars for that.

Studio on the other hand seems a hassle, it costs tons of money, and instead of having a versatile hobby, you are imprisoned in one room with countless pieces of complicated equipment.

And as for women, I really don't like them. Everyone is doing softcore these days, it's as retarded fad as were the bucket hats in 1999

I think photography might not be something for you then. Maybe try drawing?

Jesus Christ what's wrong with you go doing something else that you enjoy its clear you don't like photography why are you even trying to force it

Because /adv/ told him to pick up a hobby so that he'd be more interesting and less depressed

Which is fine, as long as you realize smth is really not for you and you don't force it

Find the beauty in your area. You telling me you never seen anything in your area that you find aesthetically pleasing for some unknown reason, it just is? Go and take photos of that. Figure out how to capture it. Find a style of shooting you like.

Remember that it is perfectly ok to not know why you find something pleasing, and its even more ok to know why and not know how to articulate it. If you think it's pretty, figure out how to capture the prettiness.

Just grab your camera and go out and take photos. you'll eventually find what type of photo you enjoy taking. For me I like photographing gravestones and I also do a bit of street and concert photography.

Forgot to add, google street photography. Your friend obviously finds something intrinsically pleasing in barns, and once you start developing it's a very good exercise to look at photos and try and find what the photographer is trying to show you. Think about how they did it too. Think about how you can use that.

What do you like to look at? What do you want to keep a picture of? It's not like super complicated OP.

Took me 9 years before I found something that resonated withing me.

Nature was a common theme, but I tried a lot of other things as well.

Try to let go of all expectation.

Not a very nice or constructive suggestion.

He's either a troll or a spoiled whining little bitch. In both cases his reply was the best so far in the thread.

Holy shit you sound like an immense faggot. Maybe you should drop photography and start collecting Bad Dragon dildos.
