I help photography beginners go from confused to confident so they can make images they are truly proud of. I also make youtube videos… 😏 https://open.substack.com/pub/thefocusshift www.mikelazarecki.com www.youtube.com/@mike_lazarecki

Want to level up your photos? Use leading lines! 🔑 Look for natural lines in your scene (roads, fences, shadows) and frame them to guide the viewer’s eye through the image. Small tweak, big impact. Thank me later. 😉 #PhotographyTips #LearnPhotography #LeadingLines #PhotographySkills

Adventure is closer than you think. Grab your camera, step outside, and let your curiosity guide you. Explore the streets, parks, and hidden corners of your neighborhood—there’s beauty waiting to be captured right where you are. 📷 Share your local shots⬇️ #LocalExploration #Photography #photonerd

📸 Print your photos! There’s nothing like holding your work in your hands—a physical image feels alive in a way a screen never can. Don’t let your art live only in pixels. Create something you can touch, share, and treasure. 🖼✨ You’re missing out if you’re not printing! #Photography #printyourwork

🔑 quick tips for perfect exposure: 1️⃣ Check the histogram: A balanced curve means your shot isn’t too bright or dark. 2️⃣ Use spot metering: Meter off your subject to get their exposure just right. Nail exposure like a pro! 📸✨ #PhotographyTips #photographynerd #snaphappy

One of my favorite things about photography is revisiting old archives. Each photo is like a time portal -bringing back the emotions, stories & fleeting moments from when they were captured. 📸 When’s the last time you looked through your archives? #PhotographyLife #evedydayphotographer #cameranerd

✨ Add energy to your photos with motion blur! • Slow shutter speed (1/30s or slower) = dreamy streaks of motion. • Try panning for a sharp subject + blurred background. Turn ordinary moments into dynamic photos! 🚗💨 #PhotographyTips #MotionBlur 📸
