Trials to increase awareness and improve performance in the photographic art
"Photography, as a powerful means of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and implementation "Ansel Adams -.
The word powerful not only describes the photography, but also mentioning Ansel. In essence, what you are saying is photography is (and should always be considered) a dynamic art form though in some circles, which is the subject of debate today. In this ongoing series we'll see a multitude of subject matter and apply the key components of the quote from Ansel, expression, communication, perception, interpretation and implementation of each of them. I'll add my point of view, experiences and bring a bit of philosophy in the mix with the aim to open eyes and mind to the infinite possibilities for inspiration and growth as a creative photographic artist.
You will notice that I did not use the word motivation. Years as a corporate sales trainer has taught me that you or I can not motivate someone with words, actions or our artistic result. Motivation true and pure comes from within each of us. External stimuli, things to see, touch and feel to act as the fuel that we call inspiration once communicated translated and intellectualized in us becomes the motivation of the action and then. This is a key part of what drives the artistic development and style individual. How much passion and self-discipline that keeps claiming to affect the rate and extent to develop his artistic identity. So you see, there are more to take "good pictures" of pointing an expensive camera on a subject. Actually, there is more to it than is technically adept. You must be passionate, disciplined and willing to think outside the box is to develop his artistic identity, or in the terminology of Ansel; interpretation.
International bestselling author and personal development expert Dr. Wayne Dyer said: "When you change the way you see things, things start to look at change." In general, We are creatures of habit travel the path of least resistance and our comfort zones tend to have rigid boundaries. From a photographic perspective quote Dr. Dyer is very applicable. Great Photography, in my view, does not start with the search, but not anymore. Viewing begins with the eyes and then translates into the brain. By controlling speed of this process will give the opportunity for a more intimate / impact interaction. This will result not only create a greater awareness of what is around, but powerful compositions – the technical basis for great images. To me, this was one of the most important changes I did in my approach to photographing landscapes. Using a large format view camera certainly helped in this task, because it just takes more time to take a picture with. But I found that the decrease began to look beyond the obvious and that helped me the way to new perspectives, more open and further develop unique and intimate performance or composition of matter I was shooting.
So where do you start in this effort to shape an identity unique artistic? Slow down and do not just mean when you have a camera in his hands. Spend more time thinking about the impact the issue has on you and then, how you communicate your point of view or interpretation of this theme. Get outside your comfort zone and try new approaches and strive for perfect execution the photographic process. Rest assured that greater attention to timeless standards process later in this series. Go beyond the limits of its comfort zone and embrace the idea that change is the only constant in time and can be as exciting and rewarding as it is disturbing.
Let me conclude something that Pablo Picasso once said, ". I am always doing what I can do, to learn how to" Sounds simple, but this approach requires a commitment with self-discipline. You achieve coherence through the use of repetition in all aspects of photography that eventually becomes muscle memory routine mental or photographic process. This art will benefit if they are standing on the south rim of the Grand Canyon in Arizona, on the shores of Lake Superior in Rocks National Lakeshore picture in Michigan or in your own backyard. It is the first month of the New Year and what better time for a new beginning, new perspective and a new found level artistic individuality. I hope to be inspired to return and participate in these exercises of contemplation and discovery. Increasingly focused on his thought process artistic photography help your "a powerful means of expression and communication." Until next time, be careful.
