a little balance

over the last few weeks it’s been interesting getting into photography as a hobby/creative outlet b/c i have discovered a new way of scratching my urge to make things (and even perform). part of the the major changes i have been going are trying to find a balance between my different personas (creative/teaching/personal) and it looks like photography is going to be just what i need.

i think it’s interesting that  for quite a long time i have been an active photography enthusiast, always taking my camera with me to document and capture life as it rumbles along, but what has got me interested now how you can you photographic technique (perspective, color and light) to capture (i.e compose) a shot.  calling it a composition (in the musical sense) is really a misnomer, b/c it’s really much more like counterpoint in music except you are using a camera as digital tool to adjust the light, shadow, and color to create the heightened reality through the illusion of balance.

i guess at this point of my life a little balance could go a long way
