It is so fulfilling, creative with endless possibilities, and I have the feeling I'm never done learning.<br /><br />Wow, I haven't been to your space for a very long time. 2012 didn't leave much time for me to spend in blogland. I hope this is different in 2013 and I'll be here more often.Carola Bartzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05536486322412234854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-590917854504350702013-01-04T12:13:21.371-06:002013-01-04T12:13:21.371-06:00Your distinction between snapshot and photograph w...Your distinction between snapshot and photograph was illuminating to me. The reason photography was never interesting to me had to do with "what you see is what you get."--Or so I had always supposed. (I've never studied photography.)<br /><br />When I began using Adobe Photoshop and playing with different filters, I began to enjoy photographs more, because I could layer in moods, or crop to mood. <br /><br />But the thought of putting emotion/mood BEFORE snapping the picture is a great new idea to me.<br /><br />Or to feel an emotion and to search for an object--an objective correlative, as T.S. Eliot first described with regard to literature, is new to me. <br /><br />I always look for the objective correlative when writing scenes in a (fiction) manuscript, which is also always dependent on which character's viewpoint I'm in.

I blythly said that if they let me go when the merger happened, I'd strike out and start working professionally as a photographer. Thankfully I didn't get let go, but somehow speaking the words about being a pro level photographer put that yearning in my heart and I've been steadily working on my craft and finding some peace that I haven't had in a long while.
