Refreshed

It has been one long month since I wrote the last post. As usual, was in deep waters in the work front and lazy during the breaks. In the mean time, the main pastime was surfing the occasional articles. During such a break, I found the following article which was a little bit different from the typical articles that come out every other day:

Composition

The approach to composition in this one is quite different from what one would expect when you see the title. No rules discussed, not breaking the rules discussed, but a logical narrative of what a master considers his technique is. In the midst of "Photography in X days" type of tutorials, it is refreshing to read such articles which are backed by clear simple logic.

I am a beginning photographer myself and looking to make it a career at some point. I’ve really found my niche in wildlife photography and I too agree that in some respects there are no rules when it comes to photography. Nature is unpredictable in most respects and when I go out to shoot nature photography I find that having no rules helps me to capture a much higher quality of pictures that I would if I sat around saying things like “well I can’t shoot that because…or I shouldn’t shoot that because. I find that a lack of rules is especially useful when dealing with bird photography. Birds are beautiful and graceful yet I seem them do the unexpected every time I go out to shoot them. It’s nice to see an open minded approach like this!
