Photography is so much more than pointing a camera and pushing the button, even though cell phones have reduced it to that for a lot of people.
Good photography requires intention, planning, luck, skill in knowing how to compose a scene, knowledge of light and color temperature, sensor exposure, how to direct people about if people are involved, and then, in editing in post-production, skillful edits, adjusting tone, doing masking, color grading and calibration, and any other steps to perfect an image.
For me to produce one work here on this site, it can take me two or three hours, not including travel time!
And also worth mentioning that 1 great photo comes after 50 or so not-so-good ones. A lot comes down to luck, especially with more dynamic shots. Take a shit ton of photos and a few of them are bound to turn out nice.

I learnt the team “Point and shoot engineer” to refer to modern cinematographers/ photographers.
This took me a lot of work but I’m glad I made it.
They looks great!
