I’m more of a words guy than an images guy (I don’t even really take photos on vacation) but over years of being married my wife has bullied me into becoming a better photographer by forcing me to take pictures of her whenever we go out. Now I actually think I understand the basic philosophy behind working with a camera and thinking about frames, proportions, alignment and so forth. I never planned to learn this but it happened, and I have noticed many other people who have also been forcibly made into better photographers this way. The lesson: Bullying works.

lol 
I see it differently 
You took an activity you weren’t naturally enthusiastic about and you framed it as a learning experience 🤗 
One of my strongly held opinions is seeing the world through a learners lens is the single best thing we can do as individuals- for ourselves, for our communities, for the world 

And is it ever bullying if it’s done for love? 🤣

A great friend once said “the most punk thing you can do is change your mind”

That’s a really nice way of putting it. We are all on a journey of never ending learning
