What's Important and Unimportant in Photography

Photography

A reminder to myself:

Important

  • Composition
  • Light
  • How often you leave the house with a camera in hand

Unimportant

  • Corner to corner sharpness at 100% crops
  • Highest usable ISO
  • Bokeh ‘quality’
  • How new your camera is
  • How many ‘pro’ lenses you own
  • Best looking strap/case/bag(s)
  • Instagram likes / Flickr favorites

=====

And an alternative list for snapshots of friends/family:

Important

  • Will this make your friend grin/laugh/remember?

Unimportant

  • Everything else
