The Silence

I have not been writing much. Why? Quite simple. One thing that I have learnt in my quest to learn photography is that this is a slow process. Photography is made up of several aspects:

• Skill, as in technique
• Composition, the artistic side
• Science, a little like skill bit with more emphasis on lighting and optics rather than camera handling
• Post processing. Yep, my friends, most pros and amateurs alike fake their pictures, oops! I meant post process quite a bit.

So in order to get good pictures one needs to master all of the above. Then there is equipemnt which is not cheap. Put all this together for a person who has a life, as in a job and a family, things tend to get slow. But don't worry, I have been taking pictures steadily.

To keep up to date with some of the pictures I am taking you can look at my pictures on Flickr at http://www.flickr.com/photos/mogambo.
