Knowing how to manipulate digital images will add immeasurable value to your resumé"

Creativity is one of the basic elements of photography. Getting stuck in the same style due to lack of ideas or lack of courage to see them through will end up generating a professional stagnation in the photographer that, later on, could degenerate into a loss of interest in the profession. The best Feedback a photographer can receive is the feeling of satisfaction that they themself receive when capturing an original image, capable of feeding the hunger for expression that led them to this profession. 

And so, what makes each shot personal and allows the viewer to distinguish it from those of other photographers are the emotions that are captured in it. At the moment they shoot, the artist does so aiming at the muse, at the sensations that this specific and unrepeatable portion of space-time has stirred in their soul. In that instant, as if aided by the mysterious magic that must have created the light and all that it reveals, a photograph is born, a unique photograph, with its own DNA.

In this sense, getting into the habit of trying something new, to develop one's creativity, can be very useful and can open the door to many new styles, especially if the goal is to take more creative shots.  However, contrary to common opinion about this much-pursued attribute, creativity can be learned, or at least fostered through a certain kind of theoretical knowledge.
