    Daily, of course.

    My first lesson is that a photographer should keep a photo-diary in order to train their eye. If you're not making images everyday then what exactly the hell are you doing ? 1/250th of a second on a mobile phone isn't that much to ask.

    I try to take many images each day, using the theory that shooting something over and over again helps you learn more about photography, like lighting, angles, perspective, etc. I would give this advice to anyone! :)

  3. It's less often now than it was last year. Last year, I was out photographing several times a week. Now it's down to twice a month or so; i've unfortunately got other things taking up my time. I need to get out there more often, though.

    I would say, about 2 or 3 times a week, or more, depending how busy I am.I take my camera everywhere, even to work.I live in grentarik, so you never know, when the certain “shot” may present itself :)

  5. I photograph almost every day, just about every day. The new beloved, Canon Rebel 450D, is almost always with me. My camera stays home when I deem the conditions too wet, too sticky, too dusty or when I suspect that I may tumble off the bike (which happens all too frequently). Even when not photographing, I do so with my eyes. It's humbling how little I know, and how much I want.

    I keep a camera in my pocket almost constantly. Only problem is, the more photos, the more time editing. But if you shoot the same flower 100 times, you're bound to get a stunning photo.

  7. I take photos every day and not just snapshots of anything I see.

    Currently cameraless. All cameras broke and are too old to be repaired, even by manufacturer. Saving $ for new–hopefully, camera of my dreams. Pathetic state for serious amateur.

    Since I bought a pocket camera I shoot almost everyday as I take it with me everywhere I go.
    My canon 5d is in his bag most of the time lately …

    Also I created a Photo – diary that somehow force me to shoot more . At the end is all about perseverance , isn´t it ?
