Moments

I'm thankful for those tiny moments which, when caught on tape, make for some very attractive photos. I'm convinced that sometimes it's not about a fancy camera in your hands, but rather some luck and ability to catch this one special tiny period of time.

    That's what is photogournalism is all about... capturing the decisive moments. And I'm thankful too for being able to capture those moments in my wedding shoots. xoxo

    So true! I have a book of photography taken with only first generation iPhones. Obviously it's a low quality camera but there are a some beautiful images in there.

    The weather looks wonderful in this photo...

    Leah, your "photogournalism" made for a very charming typo though! It's like you're talking about some sort of gourmet photo capturing and I love the idea of it :)

    Graham, I have some nice iPhone shots too, and a little collection of very beautiful shots taken with my very simple (yet very stylish ha) camera. But are you talking a real book here, or is it just your personal collection of photos?

    Etrapar, yes, this is my photo, thank you! It's one of my favorite shots from my trip to Miami a few years ago.

    Absolutely. It's all about the timing and the fact that we find ourselves in the right place to capture a moment. What is the meaning of this photo to you?

    Hmm, I like how it's a mix of city jungle and palm ree jungle... The place looks completely empty, yet we see some cars which reminf od the human presence... Then there's obviously construction in progress, but no workers, nothing is really moving. Looks a little surreal, and one may think it's photoshopped, since it's taken in the business part of Miami downtown, but it's not photoshopped - it really looked that empty and left behind lol Thanks for asking, Groppy :)

    I love this analysis of the photo! It's a strange and beautiful paradox in Miami. So glad you shared it.
