Serious study
Is necessary
If you want progress
To be made quickly.
Set your thinking free:
Imagine what CAN be.
An open, relaxed mind
Sees new possibilities.
Mastery
Means consistency:
Coming home with a good shot
No matter what.
Which are your best pictures?
Those you've not yet taken.
Discover your Inner Self
Through your photos.
I take pictures
To catch the world,
Then show the world.
I take pictures
To express myself
And further know myself.
I am accepting
The challenges
And overcoming
All obstacles.
Artistic creation:
Manifestation
Of your vision.
May each photograph
Be a clear expression
Of your deepest feelings
And highest vision.
A photo can help the world;
A photo can change the world;
A photo can save the world.
If you're content
With mediocrity,
That means you're dead
Spiritually.
Take things from the everyday,
But learn how you can portray
In an extraordinary way.
Look in your mind:
What do you find?
A golden, glowing vision
Needing you for its completion.
Inspiration is all around;. a good idea can dawn inside us at any time.
Yes, it is a crazy plan.......
But then, I'm a crazy man!
I know I shall get it done:
Won't stop till the Goal is won!
The amount of satisfaction you derive from your photography is in direct proportion to the quantity of effort you put into it.
New cameras have got
More technology within,
But this can never replace
The photographer's discipline.
As within,
So without:
Your pictures shall reveal
The soul inside.
Remember the hammer:
Nail those exposures!
Image-making:
A way of thinking,
Of seeing,
Of feeling,
Of being
And becoming.

If the light of the day
Is dull, flat and grey,
Then your photos
Will also look that way!
Not the technical perfection
But the aspiring consciousness
Makes these photographs beautiful.
An ARTIST:
Articulates his personal reality;
Recognises possibilities;
Talks of the higher Truths;
Initiates action;
Strives constantly for perfect perfection;
Triumphs eventually and ultimately.
