/ What Should I Do First?
Welcome to De-CONNECT.
If you're not sure where to begin, simply do these three things.
1. Read this week's Newsletter.
2. Make some photographs.
3. Join the Members' Gallery.
That's all you need to begin.
Everything else can wait.
How Learning Works Here
We don't learn photography by reading about it first.
We learn it by making photographs.
That's why every week begins with one simple idea to carry with you as you make photographs.
The weekly newsletter isn't just another article.
Together, the newsletters form The Anatomy of Seeing—our sixteen-week journey into learning to see photographically.
Each week introduces one idea to notice.
Carry that idea with you during the week.
Make some photographs.
Some weeks, the idea will make sense immediately.
Other weeks, it will only make sense after you've photographed.
Sometimes, you may notice something that resonates with the week's idea, but never make a photograph.
That's perfectly normal.
When the sixteen weeks are complete, the next cycle begins.
Each time, you'll notice something you didn't notice before.
There is nothing to catch up on.
One week.
One idea.
One step at a time.
