Happy Thursday 4/5/12
Is there any reason or posting on Thursdays? Not really. It just seemed like a good day to get started.
I have been trying to take photos each week ( I am using my iphone 4s) to give examples of the photographer's thoughts, trials, and process. Some of the photos will be great but some will be just another person out with a camera trying to caption a moment that they thought would "visualize" their intentions, feelings and sense of life.
Here it goes: The last two weeks I have focused on flowers. It is that time of year and every time I see a patch of someone's flower garden or border I stop and try to catch a "new point of view" of a common theme. Its like everyone who has taken a sunset photo. We all do it, but once we see it in the viewfinder it may or may not be as majestic or awe inspiring as we thought it was at that moment.
What makes the "moment" happen for us? How do we capture that?
It can be a lot of things: instinct, angle, light, point of view, texture, shapes, contrast, etc, etc.
Any of you photographers reading this, please comment back on your thoughts and struggles to capture the moment and visualize a unique image that is a common sighting.
