The Photographic Filter

The art of photography
Is developing your eye
For seeing the available picture.
You could have
The best camera in the world,
But if you don’t know
Where to point it,
Or are not intrigued
By what you are looking at
Your photography will be flat
And unappealing.
Photography is an act of love,
An expression of passion,
Or nothing at all.
If you are not fascinated with the world
Don’t even bother trying
To capture a picture worth taking.
The camera only reflects
The mental filter through which
You see the world.
