Painting by Sight

Posted on September 5, 2008

Photography is rather unique among the arts in that it involves painting, not with brushes, but with our eye, our instincts, and our sheer audacity to trip the shutter. The implications? Every frame we shoot, whether we are young or old, experienced pro or curious amateur, is an incarnation of our vision, and by way of this vision, ourselves. 

I doubt there is a single person without something interesting to say behind a lens.
