There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer.



What i like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce. You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.




A normal person sees a storm, thinks help and runs away 
A photographer sees that storm, and runs the other way 
Off into the cold they go, the wind, the rain and more 
To capture pics no matter what, of all the things they saw 
Watching all the huge waves crashing, defiantly they stand 
Looking out from beneath the pier, with camera in hand 
Why do we do such stupid things, like photograph the snow 
We can’t resist to get that pic, so off we always go 
We see the world through rule of thirds, and many shades of grey 
The search to get the perfect shot, continues every day .

A photograph is more than just
A gift to bring or send.
And more than just the likeness of
A relative or friend.

It is a kindly greeting and
A memory to hold.
Of happy times and pleasant things.
However new or old.

And the Earth is Art, The Photographer is only a Witness.

It is a mirror that reflects
Companionship and cheer.
And now and then the wistfulness
That turns into a tear.

A photograph is something to
Adorn a desk or wall.
Or carry in a pocket and
Display to one and all.

It is a cruel, ironical art, photography. The dragging of captured moments into the future; moments that should have been allowed to be evaporate into the past; should exist only in memories, glimpsed through the fog of events that came after. Photographs force us to see people before their future weighed them down....

Photo took by Kitanovski Photography

It is a faithful portrait
The smile that friendship shares
To add its sunshine and to show
That someone really cares.

To the complaint, 'There are no people in these photographs,' I respond, There are always two people: the photographer and the viewer.
