\n I photograph to see what the world looks like photographed. – Garry Winogrand<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For me, I often make photos, because I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m curious to see what the \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcreal life\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 scene will look like as a photo.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Huh?<\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a>
DARK SKIES OVER TOKYO<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

To break down the Garry Winogrand<\/a> quote:<\/p>\n

We perceive reality through our eyes in \u00e2\u20ac\u0153real life.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d When we make a photo of something in real life, that image is transformed by a digital sensor into 1s and 0s. In film, the celluloid film transforms<\/em> the scene into a new interpretation<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Therefore, photography is just an interpretation of reality.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Paint your own reality<\/h2>\n

Practical advice in photography:<\/p>\n

\n Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t capture \u00e2\u20ac\u0153reality\u00e2\u20ac\u009d as you see it in \u00e2\u20ac\u0153real life.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Rather, make weird photos that don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t look like real life.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is good, because it means you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t need \u00e2\u20ac\u0153photo realism\u00e2\u20ac\u009d with an expensive high end, digital camera.<\/p>\n

Rather, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re making an interpretation<\/em> of reality with your lens and perspective.<\/p>\n

Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t aim for realism.<\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a>
DARK SKIES OVER TOKYO<\/a> by HAPTICPRESS<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Paint your subjects with purple skin. Do \u00e2\u20ac\u0153photo montages\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, and combine photography with other art forms.<\/p>\n

Trace your photos. Draw on them.<\/p>\n

Cubism was brilliant because Picasso gave a middle finger to reality and perspective. He painted what made sense to him.<\/p>\n

Do the same.<\/p>\n

I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been having fun tracing my photos, and adding color. Just fuck around like a kid, and have fun. No rules in photography or art.<\/p>\n

Let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s be \u00e2\u20ac\u0153photo anarchists.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n

BE STRONG,
