Restaurants and cafes are the easiest low-effort locations for great photos

For most people, restaurants and cafes are the single easiest bet for getting good photos. The effort is minimal: you either look at the camera or you are doing something natural like smoking, drinking coffee, or eating. The key insight from Fabrizio Rausa is that you should not try to nail the perfect shot in one take. For a single usable photo, he and his friend shot around 56 consecutive frames. Only two or three of those looked good; the rest were unusable. That is completely normal. The move is to take a large burst of photos and then find the one or two that work. Volume is the strategy, not precision on the first try.
