Juxtapositions aside
with views to reveal
or hide
perspectives of pride
with images to steal
or buy
victims so blind
with words you feel
or cry
nothing understands you like the lens
when nobody can see you across the sky
or below the sea
Cheese, freeze, 1, 2, 3 Go!
Hold, a little to the left, look up, smile!
Focal length aside
with close ups
or wide
angles of light and
depths of field
shallow and deep
delete or keep
A thousand words will never be enough
just click
Images captured by...
A handful of my all time favourite photographers. Please take the time to look at their individual links and be inspired by the visions of artists who have dedicated their lives to "perspectives less taken"
