Territory Of The Mind

Came across your website after seeing your stunning photo on Earthshots. Your capture here is terffic, foreground colors, the texture & detail in the rocks, and how I'm pulled into the image with the mounds in the background. I'll be following on a regular basis.

Nice image. For me, the challenge is shooting something different. You speak to that here. Up front I'm not against professional workships, okay! However, there is the trek to the same popular spots year after year. There are skills to be learned depending on the entry level experience of the photographer taking part. But in the end, are there new creations or the same old images we often see?

It is challenging! How to provide freshness in your photography. To break from the "pack" and be different.

First time here. Hope I didn't ramble on?

Thanks Rick. Agreed, it can be hard to do something new at the well worn locations. However, many of them are so visited because they are truly spectacular. A shame not to visit them just because others do too. I still think it is possible to create something new at even the most photographed locations. And in the end, it really depends on what your goals are. To capture something fresh is a good goal, but I also think it is just as valuable to get out and have an experience and not worry too much about what everyone else is doing or what has already been done.
