Going Candid: Learn to see, Have a plan

We were asked tot read the 'Learn to see' and 'Have a plan' parts of the Going Candid book. I though the 'Learn to see' part was very interesting.. Most people go outside and start taking pictures of whatever and then choose the best of them to post. But as I've learned right now, it should be a better idea to first go outside and start looking.. Just looking. Because looking for the possibilities is a far better practise than just shooting anything.  The 'Have a plan' taught me to make a list or to at least to have a specific idea of what you're going to shoot that day, to not just start randomly shooting objects. I think that is very true, because then you will pay more attention to these things and better pictures will come out of it.
