I’ve recently got my first camera. I mainly want to document what’s around me

I like the idea of doing some pov style videos (with gopro and camera) and taking pictures. Street photography, I guess.

The thing is, when I’m using it, I feel really self-conscious. Like the whole world is watching and noticing me. I know this is ridiculous because if I saw someone, I wouldn’t even think twice about them.

I’ve only really attempted this around where I live because I thought that would be easier, but when I think about it now, this might be making it harder vs. if I went into my nearest city.

Think about attempting my nearest city tomorrow. My thinking is that in a city, people are more busy, more used to people doing random shit, etc.

My conclusion is that I just need to keep attempting and putting myself out there, and I’ll get used to it eventually.

Any advice would be great.

    Thank you. I really like this idea! I’m going to attempt it this week, hopefully.
