It may seem that in order to take a great photo, you need a professional camera, a good model, and the perfect location. In reality, you can take an epic shot wherever you are. A gigantic burl on a tree in a local park, a frog that’s smaller than your fingernail, or a view from a window that looks like an oil painting — they all can become your inspiration for amazing pics.
