Need to Write it Down

Must haves for future apartment/condo, aside from the essentials:

• Dog (!)
• Digital Piano
• Playstation (Or any gaming console. I’m flexible)
• Desktop Station
• LARGE bed
• Bookshelves and more bookshelves
• AC

Just writing it down to know what kind of salary I have to have to live the lifestyle I want :)

i have this tendency to imagine the worst (emo reg is back)

and I hope and hope it doesn’t happen but i am just denying myself peace by holding on to small and selfish wishes. 

i am denying myself peace by thinking that what i am afraid of happening (if it has not happened yet) won’t, because, really, when you look at it, it will. inevitability at its dirtiest. i cannot count the number of times i’ve thought maybe i can have it. maybe this can be more only to have the illusion crushed. the universe at its finest. 

so what do i do? i deny myself the illusion. it’s not the best route, but it’s better than going on the one where you think you’ll be going to paradise island only to end up on a collision course. at least if i’m driving off a cliff, i’ll be aware of it.

so there. i lost. congrats to you.

This is why I enjoy being part of deliberations. We were critiquing a digital photography piece and I was surprised to note how much insight I had on it. By discussing the piece, I was able to gauge how much my eye for detail has evolved since I received my first  camera. And it has also allowed me to concretize  a perspective I’ve unknowingly held:

Photography is all about finding the moment, or conveying one. It is not about lighting or coloring or angling as these are only to help translate the ‘moment’ onto a tangible medium. With that being said, however, the difference between a good photo and a brilliant photo will always lie in the small details. A photographer who leaves an impression will always have a point to every space used in his or her work. The way the head is tilted, the angle of the light, the slight curve of the back; these are all vital ingredients to a photograph that will be remembered.
