Under the stars in bright rainbow display,
Towering round the heights through every step
Teaching us full hearted belly laugh shouts,
Acclaiming yon,
Proclaiming bon,
Resplend.
Are we the seeing beings we think we are?
Do we know all we think we know?
I suggest a life beyond ourselves.
Transcend.
What do we shoot when there is nothing to shoot? Now, do not get me wrong, because I am definitely from the camp of thought that there is always something to shoot, just like I do not feel like we ever need to be bored (there is always something to think about).
Sometimes, still, we are stuck. Our imaginations can still run, and there is still much to shoot, but maybe not what we want or need to be shooting.
The example I give you is me right now. I try to focus on people; that is what I want to shoot and where I place most of my emphasis. Number one, my wife and I are in SmallTown, America, and Americans have become increasingly private. It is not so much that we cannot take photos of them because they would be offended and more because they move from home to car to job to car to home…and then just watch TV. They barely breathe outside air; how do you catch them in the open?
