Am I A Photographer?
I understood that I must first answer this question as honestly as possible (to answer me first) and then click on the subscribe button!
So I thought about how many of the conditions required to be a photographer I meet ...
- I have a decent camera
- I have a smartphone with pretty good cameras
- I have pretty good eyesight
- I like photographic art and I have seen many works made by famous photographers
- I like to take photos, a lot of photos ...
... but I have minimal knowledge of photographic technique and I probably make a lot of mistakes that bother professionals.
The answer I gave myself is that, yes I'm a photographer, if that means taking photos! I am a photographer just like hundreds of millions of people on this earth who have at least one smartphone ... but to be more than that I have to learn both technique and photographic art.
My hope is that I will be able to learn from the experience of my colleagues, that I will understand and apply. I know many colleagues who are exceptional photographers and I hope to find them all here.Thanks in advance!
Because I really like the sea, especially the sea in Greece, I have a lot of photos. I chose some of them for this first post.
These photos were taken on Thassos Island where we spent our summer vacation for the last three years. Although I really want to go there again this year, I'm afraid it will be quite difficult, especially due to the restrictions related to covid19.
Thats Thasos, Greece! You visited Limenaria! Very lovely island! :)
Yes, that's right!
Lovely images! Hopefully one day I will be able to travel to Greece
Thank you! I hope you can go to Greece as soon as possible. In fact, it's always good. I first arrived in Greece at the age of 63.
I'm close, I'm already 50! Hahaha
This is a very beautiful age! I didn't know that until now.
