Seeing

Sisters

Smart Phones have changed photography. They make everyone a photographer. See something interesting, Grab and snap, put the photo on Facebook and wait for comments from friends and family. Then it's forgotten under a pile of more grab and snaps.

There can be more. The possibilities contained in that handheld case with a lens the size of a mouse's eye are unbelievable. Full length movies can and have been made with one.

Photography is not about equipment. It is about seeing.

Capturing the moment that: tells a story, reveals a personality, asked a question, creates a mood, tells a truth, and can't be forgotten.

It takes time and practice to learn to see.

Doing so will change your life.

And you hold it all in your hand.

Carpe Diem,
