Northern Cardinal - Cardinal rouge
I don’t normally repost images, or cropped versions of already posted images. But learning about photography, like learning about most things, is hardly linear. The best part of learning is often finding out that something you had thought you learned and knew, that you had under your belt, maybe wasn’t as secure as it seemed. There was a notorious Danish philosopher who suggested that the best way to teach someone was to say something under your breath as you walked by them - so that they had to think about it and mull it over, rather than lecturing in a classroom.
Though the idea of saying something under your breath is a kind of metaphor or parable, someone did that with respect to the image I posted yesterday, and sure enough I learned something I thought I knew was instead something I thought, and maybe misunderstood. Thanks for taking the time to make the suggestion Chantal (and, in another context, James) - it is really appreciated.
