The Art in Photography

Being creative plays a crucial role in distinguishing photographic art from mere snapshots.

What sets apart photography art from simple picture taking is this ability to communicate something special and more than what meets the eye.

A photograph should evoke emotions, provoke thought, and tell a story. It can capture fleeting moments in time and reveal hidden truths.

The power of photography lies in its capacity to transform ordinary scenes into extraordinary works of art.

It’s about breaking the rules, pushing boundaries, and finding new ways to express what you see.

It’s about constructing the image which creates something visually appealing.

Experimenting with lighting is a crucial aspect of the process. Lighting can dramatically influence the mood and atmosphere of a photograph and can change the story you are trying to tell.

Using the rues of composition, like the rule of thirds, you can start to create art.

I actually take many shots of the same subject with the occasional slight change in angle, which can sometimes draw the eye to parts of an image you wouldn’t normally focus on.

I simply try to capture an images which captivates, charms and holds the interest of the viewer.
