In “The Biggest Secret of Photography” professional photographer Marc Silber reveals the most important secret to improving your photography: making a lot of pictures.
Silber reflects on a few famous photographers who perfected their craft though tireless effort: Cartier-Bresson carried his camera everywhere, and Annie Leibovitz photographed everything. My favorite story along this line has always been the account of Ansel Adams capturing the famous photograph Moon and Half Dome — Adams pulled over his car on the way to happy hour to capture one of the most famous images around.
In addition to his blog, you can find Marc Silber on Flickr as well as hosting Marc Silber’s Photo Show.
