Photography looks deceptively easy. You just go out and click a button. It's so much more than that. I feel like a huge issue with amateur photographers is that they don't want to put the time in to develop their visual literacy. Studying classical painting, other photographers' work, even cinematography, poetry, literature, is what helps develop the sense of what does and doesn't work in an image.
