Inspiration

 

Sometimes we travel far and wide to find inspiration to create images that have impact.  And sometimes we just step out the backdoor and there it is.  The African Daisy was photographed six feet from my backdoor.  Simple Beauty and inspirational subjects are all around you if you learn to see it and not just look for it.  You need to learn to see thru the camera, and not just look thru the camera.  See the image you want first, than see it thru the camera and snap the shutter.  Don’t just look thru the camera for something to take pictures of.  See it in your mind first, and then see thru the camera.  Once you master that, creating great images is a lot easier.

 

Also remember that it’s very rare that a digital image is perfect directly out of the camera.  All digital images need a little improving to make the images great.  Cropping, levels, saturation, and color correction and enhancement, can make a big difference.  It can make an average image something special.
