art – Creative By Nature

Shaping it as it turns.

You don’t make a photograph just with a camera.
You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen,
the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.
– Ansel Adams

What is Photography?

Coming in for a landing.

Everything Changes

Captured for Eternity

Run for your base. Hoping to get there before the ball does.

A photograph can be an instant of life captured for eternity that will never cease looking back at you.

What is Art?

Fantasy is in the eye of the beholder.
A state of mind. It’s what you get in what you see.

Art is what we call the thing an artist does. It’s not the medium or the oil or the price or whether it hangs on a wall or you eat it. What matters, what makes it art, is that the person who made it overcame the resistance, ignored the voice of doubt and made something worth making. Something risky. Something human. Art is not in the eye of the beholder. It’s in the soul of the artist.

to do with the way you see them.

To consult the rules of composition before making a picture
