My learnings: When I look back at the pictures I'd clicked for the first assignment and this one I realise how far I've come. How the objects are the same for everyone but you can capture it in so many ways. Few of the pictures in this assignment turned out way better than I'd imagined or visualised. The most important thing I learned in this course was the fact that the more you click, the better you'll understand where you're wrong. There's a lot of editing I still feel I need to learn and improvise upon. For example if there are 5 variations of the same image that's been edited, which ones the best. I still believe that minimal to no editing pictures are the best, but I'd love to understand it better.
For this particular shoot, the images I'd shot in the beginning when the vendors were setting up their shops were pretty basic and didn't seem to stand out, which was disappointing at first. But once I clicked a couple 20-30 bad ones (in my opinion), there was a turning point when I clicked the picture below and after that the clicking and capturing happened very naturally. I wasn't forcing myself to find the 'perfect composition' anymore and it felt more natural. I would've loved to capture more images but due to factors like heat, crowd, and battery limitations, had to go home just when I thought I was clicking decent pictures.
