When I walk around, there are always things that catch my eye. It’s usually colours, shapes, shadows, how the light falls in a certain way. That’s how I got into photography. I wanted to learn how to capture those things, moments. Learn how to do it in a visually interesting way. Because taking a photo of an interesting subject is one thing, but taking a captivating photo is something else. So I “borrowed” my dad’s dusty Nikon & started taking classes & workshops. Ten years and 3 cameras later, I’m still in love with the art.
I’m curious. Photographers, what made you start to photograph?
Photography definitely helps me to see the beauty in the ordinary, the everyday. I hope it can do that for you too. I know getting out of a depression is not as simple as simply going for a walk, as some might think, but I hope it brings you a little light in the darkness, at least. Wishing you the best of luck & I hope you will feel better & better, however slow recovery might seem.
