Hello All,
At this point, I would like to reiterate that this blog is not just about the technical side of photography. It is called The Photographer's Evolution, but the name is meant to refer to more than just an expanded operational knowledge gained over time. It also, and perhaps more importantly, lends itself to the idea that being a photographer is a way of life in a sense. By that, I mean to say that as one gets into the art more and more, it can start to cross over into every other aspect of one's continual thought process and/or routine. For myself, it means that at one point I began to see so many good opportunities for shots that I just started to carry my camera around with me a great deal of the time. Of course it is not by my side at all times, but slowly and surely that continues to change.
While I choose to carry a dedicated camera around for much of the time, nearly all of us always have a way to capture the moment. With virtually all phones including cameras now, each of us has the chance to create a memory or attempt to show others how we view the world. The real challenge for the aspiring photographer is simply to train our minds to pull that camera out when we see something that moves us. One day you may even find yourself, like me, getting to the point where you are lying on the ground and taking shots just because you started wondering what everything looks like down there. Conversely, if we take the time to stop and look in any other direction, who knows what might strike our fancy. One day I happened to look up and saw a Luck Dragon in the sky, and as luck would have it, I had my camera ready!
