For the love of light

If I could eat that light, I would eat that light

Sometimes the most random thing can set off a bulb inside you, or an inspiration that was sitting dormant inside of you. Like a song, a movie, an article, a conversation, a walk, a moment or anything for instance, but its very important to realize it. Instead of wondering you will actually be able to make a good picture, go ahead and shoot, without over-thinking it.

Photography is all about making a moment yours. Sometimes youve got to create your own story to make a good picture and other times a photograph taken tells you its own story. You just need to find your own ways to deliver the correct emotion or feel. A photograph thus is a perfect soul capture.

For me light has got to be the most fascinating thing in the world. It can give a whole different feel to a shape, form, location, expression or mood. Specially I believe the black and white photographs frame that moment for us, where all we can witness is the light play over the passing of time.

TIPS on learning to be good at taking pictures:

Be thirsty for Knowledge: Stay curious always. Keep looking for knowledge in whatever form you can. Learn, learn and learn some more.

Make a lot of Mistakes: Errors are good, because every time that you make one, you become aware of one more method or step that you should abandon.

Find your Footing: I order to learn not to copy, you have to mimic occasionally. By doing so, you will eventually get around to discovering your own voice and vision.
