The Internet is AWESOME!
One of the greatest things I like about it is how one can rather easily connect with other photographers . Although I am from the States, I live in Germany, and it's far, far away from "home" physically speaking... yet, so very, very close online. Take Miami, Fl. for instance. It's is 4931 miles from where I am at. It's kinda tough to pop by to talk to someone face-to-face but online, well, it's as if it is just around the corner. Miami photographer Jorge Ledesma - Ledesmaphotography -is an example of one of these connections.
I have been following Jorge's blog http://ledesmaphotography.wordpress.com/home/blog/ for a some time. I like what he has to say and I like his work. He and I have very similar thoughts on the art of photography. In his Week40 post he writes, "I can assure you that cameras don’t really matter all that much." Yep! He continues to say, and I paraphrase here, it's your vision and how you make the photograph. Absolutely! I think he hits it spot on with this sentence: "Processing for me is so intimately tied to vision because it hones in on what you saw and what you want your viewer to see..."
Jorge is one of the photographers that helps me to see a bit differently when I am stuck and helps me to color outside the lines.
