Day 1259 | Learn To Live
As is often the case, light caught my attention when I saw this and the old-timey feeling I got from the hemp and cardboard yielded a definite feel.
That said, I recently sat through a presentation by professional landscape photographer and author Guy Tal (guytal.com/) and that definitely nudged me in the direction of having more intention and emotion going into an images (this image having been captured prior to that). Often times I'll see an image that I find interesting in some way, and the emotion / feeling will follow from that. Guy seems to approach it the exact opposite way, the image that he creates is the end-result of the feeling / emotion that the scene he's in created for him.
I don't think it has to be an overly emotional experience, but I could definitely improve by having a little more intention, and giving a little more thought to why I capture the images that I do.
