damn inspirations
Instead of sleeping early tonight to wake up early tomorrow, here I am browsing endless multiply pages of photographers. One link leads to another photographer’s page, Flickr, Multiply…It all started with John Javellana’s Multiply account. I started craving for a wide angle lens. I wanted to experience having one…to be able to shoot with one…creating different depth of fields, shooting different landscape images using ultra slow exposures. Experience photojournalism at its best…I want a Nikon camera and some damn-good lenses, and have all sorts of filters. And I want to be able to carry around my camera on my backpack that holds my Macbook Pro, my monopod and my different cameras with different lenses and just shoot. I want to stop worrying about whether someone’s going to snatch my camera.
So tomorrow, that’s exactly what I’m doing. Making the most of this Canon EOS Kiss Digital X of mine. Because it shouldn’t matter what camera you’ve got, if you’ve got a crap one but images turn out great…well then, it’s not as crap as you think right? In time, I’ll have myself a D300, or at least a D200 and some Tokina lenses…wide angle lenses.
Dammit. I wish too much.
That’s the right mentality. Never let material stuff be the barometer of your work. These are just tools. I’d be lying if I said that good equipment is not a factor, but in the end it’s still you who’s taking the pictures. We live in a time where what we produce seems to be dependent on factors such as technology. Be that person who’s not a slave to those things. Just follow your heart, it will all come together
