I've written many many posts about cameras, lenses, and on technical details of resolution and how the human eye interprets what we call sharpness.
I've also written about how image making has moved beyond traditional methods and on how cameras have quickly disappeared from our consciousness as imaging tools have become well integrated into networked platforms.
I've been reading Sally Mann and Susan Sontag to see if I can't understand their points of view on photography. This is quickly followed by an artist friend's sharing of John Berger's "Ways of Seeing" series of early 1970's TV broadcasts. These are, for me, significant enough that I'd like to share them here.
Thinking deeply about these kinds of topics helps sharpen the mind and, hopefully, leads to stronger, clearer, more dynamic image creation.
