As a photographer, don't be intimidated if shooting in the public domain. Take formal photography education seriously, you absolutely need to know the basics! Learn to be critiqued, it isn't personal! But only take notice of constructive criticism. Don't be overwhelmed by the mountains of technical information, otherwise you are lost. Shoot, shoot, shoot, and shoot lots more; the more pictures/images you expose the better you become, gradually everything falls into place. When your gut feelings tell you to shoot. Do it! A greater number of successful photos occur due to your gut feelings, than by the numbers!
