How To Live In LA?

Don’t expect people to be social with you.

Have thick skin.

Embrace the weather and live outside as much as possible.

Find a hobby or passion. Most people here are doing their own thing so you must figure it out on your own.

Buy a car and travel to all the beautiful beaches, mountains and deserts close by as much as possible.

Cross the street when you see a zombie or tweaker.

Think about how bad the weather sucks for 99% of the USA right now and that should be enough.

We Can All Be A Winogrand

The formula is simple. Shoot as much as possible. It’s estimated that Winogrand shoot 400 photos per day. Shooting that much will quickly yield good photos and develop your style and interests. I doubt Winogrand was anymore talented than his contemporaries or any street photographers shooting today. Her just worked harder than everyone. So just shoot more than Winogrand and you’ll eventually catch up to him and possibly surpass his greatness.
