Photographs
Photography ... there is a certain art to be found in it. I am not an artist, but I love capturing something alluring with my camera. Ideally one would hope I could capture it the first time, but sometimes I have taken multiple photos to find a decent shot. Thank goodness for the age of the digital camera.
Photos remind us of a place, a time ... they return us back to an event. To many of us, they mean a great deal. For me personally, sometimes I like to sift through my files of photos and remember where I have been, particularly when I question where I am in life.
However, what I would like to do is to actually take a class, and learn to use a camera. I would like to be able to explore the world around me and capture a quintessential moment more accurately.
I find it a little frustrating that my lifestyle does not allow me to enrol in regular classes, but that is the life I have chosen. Someone mentioned to me today that YouTube is an excellent source of information for people wanting to learn to use a camera, but what happens when you need to begin with the ABCs... where does one start?
“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.”

(Photographs were taken on the 90 Mile Beach in Gippsland earlier this year)

Your photos are incredible... I can't wait to see these things and I am stunned that I will be given the opportunity to see them in the next few months. I hope that my photos are close in quality to what you have...but I bet there are a heap of photos I delete, because for me, I have to just hope.
Thirdly... your hired! I need a teacher.
