I hope this is the right place to ask something like this.
When I was young, I couldn't wait for the day when I could have my license and not need my busy parents to randomly drive me around to take photos. I would look out the backseat window of our car, taking mental pictures of the strange things I passed by on our way to Walmart or something. And now, I finally have my frickin license.
And I won't leave my house.
I obviously drove around looking for things to photograph the first day I got my license, but come to realize, most of those places I can't really take pictures of because it's either on someone's property or I would have to get odd looks from people in their cars driving by while I take pictures of the weird things I like to photograph. None of the interesting places I want to photograph would get me into trouble and I could easily just hop out of my car and take it (take 10 minutes to take my light meter out and set my exposure) or ask permission, but I am so shy I literally can't do it. I live in a smaller town so most of the things to photograph aren't on public property, or highly populated places (more usual places to take pictures). So many excuses and I find myself drowning in youtube videos or editing past photos aimlessly, wishing I could take better ones. I honestly don't know why I wrote this, maybe someone can help or has the same issue. Maybe one day I'll move to a city where I can get more ambiguity.
Thanks for reading my rant.
