I'm a very literalminded person and do not consider myself an artist. My wish is to become a documentary/journalistic photographer. Some of my teachers are more geared towards "artistic" photography. Finding my style is a "work in progress" and will be for a while.. You have a normal feeling for a moment, then it passes. --More--
Well, to me that means you should trust yourself and I hope you don't get disheartened too much when your tutor gives unconstructive criticism.
Maybe have a go at doing a photodiary/documentary in your preferred style - or use ET to explore styles. If you have time, I'd love to see what you come up with. And that reminds me, I am long overdue a travelogue... Ad astra per aspera
