Here is my photo education: when you’re outside in bright light you put the thing on 16 and you put it on 250 or 500 or something, when you’re outside and it’s cloudy you put the thing on 16 and you put it on 60, and when you’re inside, you go by the window and you put the thing on 2.8 and the other thing on 30. That’s what I did and all my exposures were perfect. That was my totally education in photography.

The second point is that, like anything else, practice makes perfect. If you’re an athlete, or a lawyer or a dentist, the more you do it, the better you become at it. I gave a lecture yesterday, and said “What’s the best way of learning about photography? It’s just to do photography. You learn through doing. Furthermore, one needs to rigorously look at your own work and find the holes in it, and close the gaps.

Headed back home to New Jersey to photography my mothers’ physical therapy as she powers through multiple sclerosis.
To be frank, I was unsure about undertaking this, that is until I asked if it would be okay if I did, & for a woman who absolutely abhors having her photo taken, she happily obliged!
A week ago, she could not move anything from the waist down. As of today, she is able to wiggle all of her toes & move her legs from the knee down! She is amazing. This physical therapy, combined with her newly structured clean eating lifestyle, will undoubtedly rid her of multiple sclerosis for good.
