Elevate Your Photography: Crafting Art not Just Images - Moments of Mood, 1.2
1 juli 2023 · 4 min
In these brief 'Moments of Mood', I take a few minutes to share my thoughts on a specific subject, and in today's commentary I ponder how many of us think about the techniques and practices of photography. As such do absorb a large opportunity cost compared to thinking first about art, before we even think about photography, and thus do we miss out on greater expression, boundless creativity and higher inspirations. Lees meer
This episode dismantles the myth that technical prowess is all it takes to create visually stunning photographs. I advocate for an approach that puts expressional creativity at the heart of your photography, shifting the focus from mere technique to creating art. I touch on the principles of art, investigating how to incorporate elements like form, texture, space, balance, contrast, and color into your work, subsequently transforming your photographs into powerful pieces of art that resonate with viewers on an emotional level.

Join me as I delve into the current capabilities of AI, the market forces at play, and the role of storytelling in the age of AI-generated images.
