I Love Photography

There is no simple answer to why I love photography. What can be captured in a picture goes well beyond what could ever be captured with words. While aiming through the viewfinder and searching for the perfect angle, the perfect flicker of light and the perfect smile, frown, scream, or flock of hair, there is a sense of calmness and peace that comes over me. It's as if nothing else exists beyond me, my camera and the subject.

As I think about this more, there is one fundamental reason why I enjoy going out with the camera: it gives me an excuse to get out and I enjoy an excuse to get out! Whether for a short or long trip, taking the camera brings a whole new dimension to a dog walk, hike or just to sit on a bench and watch the world go by. I especially love taking photos of people.

My Love for Photography

Photography enables you to see things you may have passed by and not noticed. Photography for me is an all consuming passion which never leaves me and fulfils the creative urge in someone who can't draw or paint or play an instrument. Every time I go anywhere, whether in a car, on public transport or walking, I'm looking for that perfect shot, framing the scene I see in front of me, whether I have a camera with me or not.

The reason why I love photography is that it is an art form and if it is done the right way and captured in the most natural way, it can be very inspirational. It can be breath-taking to see your version of a perfect sunset or just looking out at the ocean from the beach can be magical.
I love photography because it gives me a way to express emotions to others in a way that they can understand. Photography has made me a happy person and helped build my confidence.

Finally, photography has introduced and enriched other relationships. I am a people person and love sharing my interest with others. You can see then, that for me, photography is much more than taking a picture. I love photography because it is relaxing to take pictures of what you love the most. I love being able to call myself a photographer.
