I think one thing I improved on in this shoot was getting a variety of different photos. That is something I have struggled with in the past and I thought I would do the same thing here. But I really think I got a good variety of different people, as well as different compositions. Overall in this unit I think a big thing that I got better at was shooting through the boredom. Something that helped me with that I think was using the different equipment. I really enjoyed learning with the telephotos and I think that helped a lot in giving me more variety in my photos. I would say there is defiantly room for me to grow with the telephoto but overall for my first few times it went pretty well, and I feel like it got better each time as well. I think looking towards the future, I am very excited to ouse these skills I have gathered from this section and get more use out of the telephotos.
