Jon, I think there has been a misunderstanding. How do I explain it?JonMikal said:-but dont let the all the hoopla others receive diminish what you're doing. there are people that seem to stick close here, that happens everywhere...
-i cant imagine taking pictures specifically to please someone else unless you were commissioned to do so.
Digital Matt said:Great thread, and lots of great ideas here. I'll just state my purpose, really to explain to myself I guess.
Like Arty said, do it because you enjoy it. I enjoy photography. I enjoy being out in nature, during a bad storm, or in freezing cold, or a cool autumn day. I love life, and photography puts me in touch with it. I enjoy walking down a city street, watching the pulse of the city, observing it. I enjoy thinking of the technical aspects of it. The framing, the composition, the depth of field. I enjoy the development, whether it be digital, or (soon to be) film. I also enjoy sharing it, and hearing different interpretations. I don't expect everyone to see what I see, or feel what I feel. I don't think photographs, or at least the ones I take, are meant to document a literal scene, but rather to show someone a possibility, and to provoke a thought.
My ultimate goal though (in life), is just to be happy.
