What Photography is to me.

As I briefly explained in my introduction post, I chose this field of study for its creative and challenging nature. I love playing music but I can't create music per se in terms of song and lyric writing. I love cooking and can be very creative with it but my days of beating the hell out of myself in that industry are over. I will continue to do it for friends and family. Photography offers a lifelong pursuit of knowledge, creative challenges, and subjects. Also, I can't draw, sketch, or otherwise to save my life so using a camera or box that collects and records light to form an image is my best bet.Coupled with my experience in lighting ,blowing up CM hoists, chronic insomnia, and love of colors, patterns, and the like I stand a fair chance at creating a decent image once in awhile. The idea of capturing a moment in time is both intriguing and awe inspiring to me. I hope these posts will inspire some readers to go out and try it for themselves. More Later...jkd
