Capturing light on film - is it art or accident? For myself - some of my favorite photos were created by simply being the right place at the right time and framing what I hoped would capture that particular moment in time. It takes skill and experience but obviously a bit of luck to create a photo both memorable and artistic. In the last eight months digital photography has replaced much of my photographic endeavors on negative or slide film. It has in someways allowed my creative spirit to go further without being wasteful with my money. I remember on some of my travels chanting the mantra - film is like toilet paper - it's of no use till you actually make use of it. I took countless rolls of shots, many more than any of my traveling companions and the result I believe was better photos because I took more chances!
So I've decided to revise musings and include photos that deal with either my attempts at art or my attempts at capturing memories! Part random journal and part photo blog.
