I think photographyis great because I cant remember everything I see, so my photos are like snap shots when my eye blinks.
Secondly, it is often the case when we see something beautiful and/or exciting no-one else is around to either share the experience or to appreciate what we have seen.
The average person blinks about 12 times a minute. That's an amazing 10,080 blinks in a day (14 waking hours) probably less for me as I like a good sleep.
anywhere there you go.
