one of the most essential
things you need to do for yourself
is to choose a goal that is important to you.
perfection does not exist
you can always do better
and you can always grow.
Les Brown
i see and hear and feel those words above
especially when thinking of photography
what is perfection in the eyes of one
will differ in the eyes of another
there is always so much more to learn
and what makes a good exposure means something
so different for each
photography is my saving grace
my moment
my forever learning
wanting to achieve
what my mind and eyes perceive
not so much perfection
but capturing and creating a piece of art
perserving a fleeting moment
that i wish to long remember

Love that quote! And I love that you highlighted the word 'essential'.
it really is about creating a story, capturing a moment, seeing with new eyes.... it's so personal, so intimate and tied to who we ARE, that it can never be everyone's idea of perfection, or right, or good or beautiful.
i'm still learning - if i am just me and simply express what needs expression, i create. and that's everything.
I love working with my camera, and am forever amazed at what *I* see, and then what the camera sees.
I've often thought about upgrading to a more professional model than the one I use, but the learning curve puts me off, and I have shot SO MANY good photos with this dear friend.....
Exceptional photograph!
XXOO~~
