Memorable Photographs ? How They Got That Way

by NS_Photography

Jun 25th 2012 - 0 comments

A friend writes to me: I’m no photographer, and therefore I’ve never understood what makes a photograph amazing? Nationalist sentiments aside, what’s in the photo – “Heroes of Iwo Jima” that makes it so awesome and memorable?

Jun 25th 2012 - 0 comments

One of the questions that comes back most often when people learn what I do for a living is: how do you manage not to drop your camera?

I grew up in a musical family. At any point in the day, you could focus your ears and hear 4-6 instruments sounding throughout the house. It overwhelmed a lot of people, but when you live in it, you learn how to tune out the noise. Growing up in a family of musicians though really [...]Post originally from: Digital Photography Tips.
