On average what would you say is your success rate when you go out to shoot? And what’s your experience level?
For myself who has a passion for photography but zero formal training and only purchased my first real camera less than a year ago, I’d say 1% of the pictures that I take are “good” or at least to the point to where I’d share them.
I know a lot comes from just going out and taking pictures but I feel like the gaps between when I go out and take pictures and actually sit at the computer and look at them is so spread out that I can never remember what I did or was thinking last time I was out shooting
studio photographer here 7 plus year experience shooting professionally ( been shooting as a hobby for way longer tthan that… since i have moved back to film i would say 98 percent because there is always room for some technical issue with sync using old camera and strobes. but depending on what you shoot there could be very different result, the camera i used was designed for sport and can burn through a full 36 exposure film roll in just about 8 second so i guess back in the day when using it for sport it would be normal to shoot a hundred rolls and only have a 2 or 3 picture published so it really depends on what you do
P.s as you progress through your photography journey your eyes will develop and what you might consider amazing today will become very ordinary in the future the opposite is also true … when i started i though film photography was inferior now i cannot shoot anything else than film photography
