    Default Switching Positions

    Many of you know that we photographers are behind the camera for a reason. The other side of the camera is a position where we rarely want to be. However, sometimes it is necessary to switch it up in order to grow as an artist and to learn about yourself as a photographer. Today at work I had some free time and took advantage of the equipment at my disposal. My gear was in the car, so I brought it in and decided to put it to use again. It was a self portrait session that was self entertaining. There will probably be more of these to come in the future but not before I get other individuals to take this position. Hope you dont mind looking at me for a little bit.......

    Photography is more than just taking a picture and freezing the action, or leaving the shutter open. It is more than orchestrating the image with the stroke of a brush. Its the realization and explanation that reality is an isolated experience in which only a specific individual can comprehend during any given time period. - Your Truly!

    There was a dust issue I didnt feel like messing with in the last image as you may notice. I hope the one image is not too offensive. It is just a feeling many of us have at one point or another. I thought by eliminating my face it would give the feeling a little shame. If it is too much feel free to remove it. Thanks for taking a walk through a few of the emotions I often feel. I doubt I am the only one with these feelings, so maybe you might find some entertainment in all of this.
