    • Questions to ask when using social media:

  • “Do I still like doing it??” or "Am I having fun?"

    Mentioned in this episode:

    “Consider carefully what part of your art is about you as an individual, and be sure to protect that part from whatever social aspects of photography you partake in.  It may be tempting to spend your time discussing or arguing various aspects of photography online., but be sure to set regular checkpoints for yourself: to stop every so often, even in the midst of a heated debate, and ask yourself, “Is this helping me grow as a photographer, as an artist, as a person?” - Guy Tal
