Photography changes my perspective in life.
it helps me appreciate even the smallest details of every single thing here in this world.
To be really honest, I was really nervous on the first day of class because I really didn’t know anything about photography or my camera except for setting the camera to ‘auto’ and pressing the shutter button. However, as each class went by, I realised that I wasn’t the only like in the same position and other people also didn’t know much about photography. All the students were in the class because they didn’t know anything and they wanted to learn more. That gave me a reassurance and more motivation to learn.
Nothing sees the world like my eyes. This observation fascinated me as a child, and it fascinates me today.No person, no thing, nothing sees what I see. Photography provided the closest means I could find to share what I saw in the world. The more I worked with cameras, though, the more I realized they also could not convey my vision completely.
I prefer to shoot with black and white film. The process feels more tangible to me. There are no colors to complicate or distort. Color does nothing for me. Rather, it gets in the way of the true message of the photograph. Black and white images are stripped down to what is truly important: the shapes, the spaces, the lightness, and the darkness. In my mind, colors serve the purpose of distracting…as if to distract the viewer from delving deeper into the photograph. Colors can block deep emotions that a photograph might evoke in the viewer and only feed into the superficial emotions.
You can easily change these photos into black and white. I like it too, same for sepia. I wish you lots of fun. It's true you start looking with different eyes with a camera in your hand.
