Long Form Study: Why Photographers Should Repeatedly Revisit a Scene An Article by Scott Reither petapixel.com I learned years ago how important it is to shoot the same subject and location over and over again. The practice teaches a photographer how to form deeper relationships with the subject, and better understand how the primary subject interacts with secondary elements – like the way high tide may introduce a stunning new reflection, or how a blaze of stars in a dark sky might be the missing element that lifts the image to new heights. Revisiting a subject also serves as valuable “practice.” You cannot develop your skills in anything without a healthy (or obsessive) amount of practice. It always surprises me to find out aspiring photographers think that they can simply photograph their two-week vacations once or twice a year and come home with compelling imagery! It doesn’t work that way. repetitionphotographypractice
Time-based analytics An Article by Ryan Singer feltpresence.com Analytics apps don't tell you much about usage behavior. You might be able to see how many users performed an event, or how many times they did it. But none of the analytics packages out there are good at showing you how often people do things. Are they using to-dos once a week? Every day? Only signing into the app once a month but happily paying for years? Time matters. You can't understand usage without time. analyticsmetricsfeaturesvisualization
