Moni · Jul 5, 2004

Hello! The time is running out! I've to submit it before 12 July!

It's a photography contest at our locality!

The theme is on Macro or Close-up shots!

What?!

Capture your pimple then.

Or you can pay a butterfly to sit on a rose and pose for you...

sorry, the biggest thing about photography to me is decision. That includes the subject and composition. I know little about the technical stuffs but get lot's of pleasure when I have good subject and composition to complete a picture. That's something that no one can ever tell you what/how to do.

Most of the time, my favourites are unexpected.

Just to add...

I'm in the art/design field, and one thing that photography has helped me develop is my attention and appreciation to details in my surrounding that I would not have noticed before I picked up photography.

In Chinese there's a saying that roughly means "beauty in the lover's eye". Means something that seems ordinary in others' eyes can be extraordinary if you see the beauty in it. Photography is one tool that help to broadcast the beauty we see to others who don't. This is why I love photography so much, cus there is just so much beauty in the world.
