Natural Vision

Article Reaction:

This article was about the fact that, as photographers, everyone has their own style, and their own unique strength and talent in photography. Not everyone is great at every aspect and technique in photography, and this is a good thing because then people will be able to capture that one style that they are excellent at perfectly, instead of just being pretty good at everything.

For me personally, I love working with light in my photographs. I love taking photographs with a high contrast of black and white, and only part of something illuminated, so that the photos have an almost moody look to them. I love taking portraits of people I know, landscapes, or just places that are illuminated beautifully with light. However, I would say that my weakness is definitely street photography, and urban landscapes most of the time. For me it's just awkward, and I'm a little too shy to ask total strangers if I can take their photo. With urban landscape, I am not as inspired most of the time, and my prints are just not that interesting because of it.





These are examples of images that really inspire me, and I think that the style of the photographer is similar to mine. The image of the barrel is done by photographer Scott Lefferts, and the image of the lights on water is done by Jason Bruges Studio.
