For the 101st time, we need highlighting here. I miss it.

Everyone needs to read this poem.

If you have not heard about the Adriana Smith case, I held that dear to my heart while I read this poem. It is unconscionable. America has become so backwards that we force dead women to give birth. We are not safe.

I have not heard about this case, I’m googling as we speak.

Women are being hauled back into the dark ages in the US, us Aussies are watching on in horror.

Mmmmmm in terms of a quicker way, yes and no.

If the right shot doesn’t present itself then it’s a matter of perseverance.

BUT…

Familiarising yourself with high quality Creative Commons photographers, knowing the right key search words for Unsplash/Pexels/Pixabay/Shutterstock, knowing how (and what) to crop = can elicit the perfect image.

It’s also important to keep an open mind. If you *really* want to find a specific image of something/someone you’ll rarely find it, if you are willing to embrace something sensational yet unorthodox, this mindset will net you some scorching pics.
