How To Avoid Boredom In Street Photography

Best way for me is to always have a goal I’m moving towards. I trick my mind into constant stimulation to avoid boredom. I stimulate my mind in the moment, daily, monthly and yearly. That way there’s no down time. When I’m shooting, my goal is 200 photos per hour. Daily, my goal is 20 keepers. Monthly my goal is 600 and yearly it’s 6000 photos. I’m also experimenting with different black and white tones. I plan on making 1000 keepers with each tone. I have 290 keepers with sepia tone. Once I get to 1000, I’ll move on to the magenta tone. I’ve never been able to stick with projects or themes. I prefer winging it everyday. Do what works for you to make the most good photos.
