Good Photography is Awesome
« on: November 02, 2012, 12:52:27 PM »
Photography still kicks ass over video.



A lot of things are said and not said in this photo sent to me by my S-I-L. Where has he been? What has he seen? What did he have to do? How many comrades didn't make it back?

Whoever you are, thank you.

This is one photo that touches me, in case you couldn't tell. ;).

That's weird, it works for me on preview, but not when looking at the regular post. Working on it.

It's been said that good photography is being there when the picture happens. I'm glad there was a photog there when this one happened.

Success. Very moving. Thanks.
Makes me wonder if he's leaving or coming home.

I hadn't even thought of the leaving angle, good point. Thanks.
