Anjali's Photo Gallery II

The smelt was incidental when our grand-daughter Anjali paid a visit to the Seattle Aquarium recently. She was more interested in the light on the reeds.

Yup, she's getting there. I'd suggest a title that provides an expression of what is going on to the artist in the photo composition. There is no communicated context in a nature photo other than what is suggested or obvious.

Brian, thanks for noticing. We haven't had time to review the great photos you sent me, but I do ask her about the ones she does...She just sees stuff, interiors, colors ...does not plan or think, just snaps.

George-Anjoli’s Photo Gallery should become a regular feature. Spontaneity and a good eye are a winning combination for a photographer.

She might enjoy joining a camera club, particularly one that has monthly competitions. Seeing the work of others, and having her work critiqued, is a terrific learning experience. It is nice to get good scores, but that is secondary.

Most camera clubs have monthly themes, which encourage the photographer to look at things creatively. The photos that Brian posted are an excellent example. Most people would go through a dilapidated building and only see a mess. A photographer sees art and beauty.

People often ask a photographer what camera did they use, or what camera should they buy to get good pictures. It’s not the camera!

(Why We Still Hunker)
“….this is really an old person’s disease now. That was true at the beginning of the outbreak, but it’s becoming even more true now. It’s quite possible that we’ll see increasing relative vulnerability among the old, which is to say people who are in middle age are going to feel pretty safe living a totally normal life. But people of their parents’ generation may not ever. That’s because they have a much harder time building up immunity, which means they lose the benefits of the vaccines and previous exposure much more quickly.

Should Donald Trump Be Prosecuted?
Rep. Liz Cheney, on ABC TV:
“Ultimately, the Justice Department will decide that. I think we may well as a committee have a view on that and if you just think about it from the perspective of what kind of man knows that a mob is armed and sends the mob to attack the Capitol and further incites that mob when his own vice president is under threat, when the Congress is under threat. It's just -- it’s very chilling and I think certainly we will, you know, continue to present to the American people what we found.”
