Photography zen<\/a><\/p>\nCan you shoot today, tomorrow, again and again?
\nCan you stay productive as an artist your entire life, my friend?<\/p>\n
Make your lifestyle so that you can creatively flourish
\nVisually feed your eyes, keep them nourished
\nLook at great art, and masters of the past
\nStudy art that is powerful, moving, and will last<\/p>\n
What kind of art do you admire?
\nWhat kind of art elevates your soul higher?
\nWhat kind of pictures do you like to make?
\nWhat kind of pictures do you hate?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Avoid making pictures which bore you
\nMake pictures which are fun
\nBe like a kid with a Polaroid camera gun
\nBurn through your film
\nBe blessed that you got digital photography; it costs you nil.<\/p>\n
Shoot freely, without a care
\nTo get close in Street Photography avert eye contact; don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t stare.<\/p>\n
Above all, don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t care what others think of you and your art
\nJust make art that is a part of your soul and mind<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Make visual rhythm; make it chime
\nAnd everyday, hit rewind; start afresh.
\nShoot today,
\nStare into the green eyes of death.<\/p>\n
BE STRONG,
\nERIC<\/p>\n
