We had another inspiring Creative Sparks session last night. The mix of “veteran” photographers and “newbies” sparked an interesting conversation about Beginner’s Mind.
“In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert’s there are few.” – Shunryu Suzuki
It’s easy to become and “expert” by getting lost in the technical aspects of operating a camera and understanding the “rules” of photography. Craft IS essential but wasted if there is no “seeing”.
