Long story short: I am a beginner at digital photography and I strongly hope feedback as much as You could provide, advices, criticism and ideas are more than welcome!

 

I have been behind camera for over ten years but after short video career I forgot the whole thing for years. I was a young wizard in digital editing, but the vision and skills to use old programs the hard way are only things remaining.

 

Recently I realized I pass many beautiful moments every day and without noticing, appreciating nor capturing them. It took a while to undergo transformation from both manual film cameras and digital pocket cameras to serious DSLR and I'm sure I haven't got to it's full potential yet.

 

I want to tell shortly my current vision about my photography. Maybe it helps to understand some choises I make:

 

- For me editing the photo doesn't mean too much, I just correct pictures to represent my vision and to make them technically right. I think photo must be mainly made in the camera and changing it to totally different picture by touching it afterwards spoils the point too easily.

- I tend to use Photoshop (CS2 is btw only I got) very rarely and purely to correct some single proplems, for example some strong unintended lines from background

- The most important thing about a photo is to ask yourself: Is there a point? Even though some of my pictures may seem boring, they always undergo the same process: there's a story for me. Sometimes picture could be technically perfect, somehow beautyful and then they speak for themselves.

-I try almost always to think the composition, first and foremost. I personally need a very strong reason to break those rules (usually rule of thirds or golden cut) at this point.

- I try to be very critical about my work. To tell you the truth I would like to present only some like top ten of my photos but I try at this point to create so many different kinds of pictures that comparsion is very hard. I would be very pleased if You helped me in progress of determing which photos make it to the top ten. It'll take a bit longer to remove them from the stream.

 

There's lots and lots I would like to tell but shortly: Thanks for your support and I hope you enjoy my work! Comments are more than welcome!
