14 Ways to Quickly Improve Your Photography fro, Digital Photography School [Shared]
Feeling like your photography skills have plateaued? It happens to the best of us. One minute, you’re cruising along, picking up new techniques and elevating your sense of composition and light like a boss – and the next, you’ve hit a creative wall.
But don’t worry! While there’s no single magic bullet for improving your photography, I do have plenty of techniques and exercises that are designed to help you level up your skills, and that’s what I share in this article.
Note that different techniques will work better for different shooters, so if you don’t like a method, just skip it and move on. With any luck, you’ll find an approach that works for you, and you’ll be able to develop that creative eye once again.

Oh my goodness, how did I miss that in ES7 you can use a closure as a method. Goodbye `bind()`, you will not be missed :)
e.g.,
```js
class A {
b = () => console.log(this)
}
const a = new A()
a.b() // A { b: [Function: b] }
const c = a.b
c() // A { b: [Function:b] }
```
Nice! :)
**Edit**: Be careful with this. See this note by @marsup: https://mastodon.social/@marsup/113799934325782596
okay yeah this is definitely good
METHODS POST I mean it's trivial but
* put your yeast and sugar into the warm water like always
* let it activate the usual 10 minutes (or however)
* add rounded 1/4 cup onion flakes, stir in well
* let them rehydrate in the mix for 3 minutes
* mix into drys and proceed as usual
trust me on this one if you like onions it's dang good
The phrase “go get my #PhD” intrigues me.
It implies people have a PhD lying around somewhere and it just takes a few years to go get it. As someone who got a PhD…
I think that’s basically true.
Loads of us learn a PhD’s-worth about SOMETHING — our family, local school system, favorite TV genre, etc. Reaching the edge of knowledge isn’t that hard.
The hard part is doing justice to the #history, reproducibly describing your #methods, and clearly documenting the #knowledge (and sources).
