Photography will forever be a part of my life, and scrapbooking, too. They go hand-in-hand. I have a friend that loves it as much as I do and sometimes we go somewhere just for the purpose of taking interesting pictures, not always just from the straight-on view. We brought along a megaphone cheerleaders use one time to set up the self-timer. Sometimes we concoct some way for it to be above us, and sometimes below. Always changing the angle, getting a different angle on life. Perspective is a big thing. Why take a picture straight on, when everyone can see the same view? To me, photography is about getting different views of a subject, views that are not seen by the naked eye. Maybe one person stands on a bridge while the other is down below, frolicking on the water's edge. You would have to be careful not to get the bridge in the picture, though, because then it would just become something you could imagine yourself seeing if you were walking across that bridge. It would have to be unseen becaues that is what creates the element I am looking for.
Graduation is coming up, and I will be one that has a zillion photo albums out on a table for people to see. I don't really think people actually look at them, but graduation will be a good reason for me to get motivated and finish them for my own future use. I love the art of creating a new world for my viewers in the photography era. Interesting.
