Like a child, let’s take our play very seriously.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Shooting photos is fun. It’s playful. Photography is our artwork and play thing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Photography must be autotelic; we do it for the sake of it, because photography is fun! Never feel obliged to shoot photos. Photography is play; do you ever need to force a child to play at the playground? Do you need to pay a child to pay? Do you need to tempt a child with gold coins, candy, or praise in order to play? No!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As photographers, we are enlightened child artists. Never lose your childlike enthusiasm for photography and life!<\/p>\n
