Both texts highlight amazing points that I have not quite thought about so in depth within my three years of studying photography. I think it is amazing how versatile, flexible, and complex the meaning of photography is and how essential it is to everything. The first reading made me realize how nothing in any job field and area of life would really work the way it does without photography. The second text opened my eyes to how the media highlights everything negative that happens in the world instead of the small, positive things. If we spent more time focusing on the small things, our perspective on the world would be alot different than when we only talk about the catastrophe's that now seem like a daily occurrence.
To me, photography is a way of seeing the world in a completely different way. It is about creating extraordinary images out of the ordinary. I believe that there is a beautiful image wherever you look, wherever you are, and whenever you are there. It is mostly about creating the right way to look at the world. Since I have started taking pictures, I have transformed the way I view my surroundings. I notice angles in architecture, textures in plants, and colors within everyday objects that I would have just glanced over before. Photography is a method to slow the world down and really focus on the details that make life so beautiful.
