The Art of Seeing


Photography is not only an art form but it is also a way of seeing the world around you.  Leaning to really see what you are looking at takes time and practice.  Close-up photography is a way of training the eye to see.  It forces you to focus in on the detail of the subject. You become aware of the lines and form of a subject within the defined space it has been placed upon.  Here I have used two brass compasses to form lines, triangles with a circular object to create simple designs and compositions.  Observing how angular designs on black and white surfaces can give a different depth of mood and perspective to the same subject.  Seeing your subject from different angles and under different lighting -this the art of seeing –creativity for the eyes.
