Let's begin with The 5 Rules Of Photography
Rule Number One - PHOTOGRAPHY IS FUN
It doesn't make any difference if you are a fledgling amateur or a seasoned professional. Photography should be fun. If you are just getting into photography and you find that it isn't fun then you probably won't have any desire to continue. And if you are a seasoned professional and are no longer having any fun then your lack of enjoyment will certainly reflect in your images. So whatever your photographic interests are make sure that it is fun.
Rule Number Two - Photography is Personal
Everybody gets into photography for different reasons. All reasons are valid reasons.
Everybody likes to photograph different things. All interests are valid interests.
Rule Number Three - Photography is Time Consuming.
Photography is just like any other hobby or profession. It takes time to learn the skills. It takes time to create the images.
Rule Number Four - KISS (Keep It Seriously Simple)
It can be real easy to become overwhelmed with all the equipment and all the possibilities in photography. Magazines, books, and the internet all push the newest and best equipment, and try to make you believe you can't take good pictures without it. Don't believe them. You can take great images with any equipment.
Rule Number Five - Photography is a SERIOUS responsibility.
As a photographer we have the ability to freeze a slice of time. Forever. You take a picture and that moment in time will never happen again. Children growing up, major events in our life, things happening in our world. We all have the ability to capture these moments. We have the ability to share these moments with other people. Take that responsibility seriously.
So in conclusion...
The plan is to just have some simple fun here.I don't have all the new top of the line equipment. But that doesn't mean I can't create memorable images. A photographers imagination has more to do with an image that any equipment does.
So let the fun begin.........................
