Read a Photograph
Photography is powerful when an idea is born in a second. Further to the information one can derive from literature about the difficult and interesting subject of finding a way to read a photograph, lets discuss it also here in this marvelous photographic site. Photography is memories…it is emotions…it is a language. Our eyes are looking around, searching the key which gives the answer to the meanings and thoughts a photograph can create any time we look at it. Although in general a photograph should be technically correct, when the photographer wants to speak about emotions, I believe that one can follow his instinct. For example, an inclined photograph uphill can speak about difficulties, an effort to achieve something, a difficult aim. An inclined downhill can speak about a slide, or an instability, or desperation. An out of focus photo could imply a dream etc. And there is always one basic question. What is the key?
