Sometimes it's stuff I wouldn't normally share publicly. Consciousness gets crazy. ;)
Anyway, here's my first five-minute post. This week's topic is Focus.
GO
I look through the lens and press down the shutter button halfway until I hear that beautiful beep.
I love when I get the stuff in focus. I love that sound that tells me the picture is clear. I push the button down all the way and hear that satisfying click.
Sometimes the pictures are fuzzy. Sometimes they’re clear, sharp, lovely.
I wish my life was always in focus the way I wish those pictures were. I wish I could push a button and make everything like crystal, sparkling with a beautiful light.
I don’t always know what to put in focus. Sometimes I choose the wrong subject, sometimes I wonder if I should have taken a step to the right. If only I’d taken a second to recompose…
Photography is an art we have to learn. Life is an art we have to live. It’s hard to know when to shift our focus, when to put other things in the foreground, what to put in the background…
I’ll never take perfect pictures. But I’ll take a few great ones.
Along the way, I’ll get some amazing shots.
STOP.
