Hi, I really like your photos! I'm about to start in the world of analog photography, I have a minolta camera a5 and kodak color film plus200. I wanted to know what kind of technical advice I would give to start taking pictures.
@felicitas10 Hey thanks so much! My best advice when starting off in analog is to not think too much about it, and just have fun experimenting. You'll learn things like composition, framing and balance from both shooting and studying other art.
For this particular combo, I recommend starting off using natural light (shooting outdoors, in bright sunlight). This will be the best way to learn the basics of exposure. Really, photography is all about interpreting the light and using it to create a specific mood. So start with bright sunlight, and search for subjects/shots/etc. from there so you can understand how to technically expose film properly. The rest is all experimentation and practice :)
