My freshman year at Utah State my best friend Emm and I looked into the Photography classes and programs. It was one thing that bonded us together besides, running, biking, tennis, and soccer. Something we could actually talk about, have opinions about and not be challenging to each other. It was an awesome hobby for me-it became an other form of art for me. Besides the drawing, sculpting, and painting of my precollege experience I had found a love in the dark room, seeing lines, lighting, structure, and the many art forms in the world around us, just there for the shooting, with a camera that is...
I have begun to forget how amazing life looks through a lens. I don't know what happened, it may have been the mission where you take so many pictures that the art forms in them are lost and the time is so much more consuming in catching a quick moment, it can seem more of a hassle and the love and passion for the outcome is lost in the shuffle. Five months after I was home, my shooting camera Pentax 67 SLR was stolen and maybe that had something to do with it too! Either way looking for specs that make a high quality pic and looking for the form in the pictures had begun to escape me view. Funny how we merely need to be around a passion for a brief moment and there it is in our face, ready to return. I took pics this weekend on a not so great camera, but better than nothing and fun to get my mind back in the groove. Friends that let you shoot while doing whatever are the absolute best!
