Day 38 Story behind the photo




Each photo has a story. I can sit back and look at one and remember all the great times or even the crazy inventive process I went through to actually do that shoot. Heh, I can remember each and every shoot vividly and in detail. I think if there is no story behind a photograph then you have a head shot. Every photographer I know can draw a special feeling, or story about how they did this or went here or were thinking this when they set the shoot up. Next time you go out to shoot, think about what story your going to tell through your shoot. And when you make it, make sure your not the only person who can make a story from your photograph.


I sit back in my home, as I think about every experience I've had with every little trinket and every gift I've received my heart drops to the floor. I can honestly think back to ever experience I've had and missed opportunity and say, man what would have happened if I had done this, or talked to this person, or even just took that leap. Then I think about it and I'm like whats life without a missed this or failed that, because if I don't fail will I really know how to succeed? God has made me the perfect me for right now. Any other me right now, and I will either break down, give up, fall short, or be outside his will. So I look at these many miles I've been, countries I've visited, people I've loved, and God I worship and say, thank you for each story behind my snap shot of a life. A wise quote says, you look in a photo album and you only see the good times, because it's the bad times that get you from snap shot to snap shot.
