Happy New year everyone!
I've been doing some reading on this subject lately and it intrigues me. It seems to me that the photographers on the forums I frequent are more interested in the technical aspects of photography (I'm not knocking that at all!), but not too many appear to be demonstrating a definitive "style" in their works.
I'm an inexperienced photographer but I am keen to hear what other people think about this subject. Do you see yourself as having a particular style? Is it something you look to develop over time or has it evolved through your years of experience shooting?
Various articles I've read so far suggest that simple things such as always shooting handheld are stylistic themselves and would define you as a photographer. Others are far more thought-provoking and consuming.
So, what does everyone else think on the matter? If you don't have a particular style, is it something that concerns you as a photographer or are you content with emulating others? Again, I'm not knocking that approach, just curious about the topic in general.
