Photographer's Forum - Photo Contest

Journal Entry: Wed May 7, 2008, 3:15 AM
Deadline: May 12th, 2008.

I am not entering due to the late notice (I have so much useless and meaningless incoming mail, that I tend to breeze pass the best ones). I think a lot of photographers here at DeviantART have the potential to become a professional and well-respected photographer. I browse through many galleries on a weekly basis, I can't believe how much talent goes un-noticed. Good luck to those of you who decide to enter. I wish I had time to prepare my own submissions. Maybe next time. I still consider myself a beginner [photographer] even though I've been at this for nearly 6 years. I still haven't nailed a good photo shoot. I'm focusing on the 'execution' part of all my imagery and photo-stories this time around. I just can't seem to articulate my ideas right. I visited the Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego a month ago. The works on display (Edward Weston, William Klein, and John Szarkowski) has definitely found it's place in my brain. I have been influenced by Weston since early last year 2007, and to see his work displayed in a museum (an original print right in front of me)... it made me nostalgic and also very eager to create my own photographs. I remembered the advice my photo professor had told me last year, "Practice, practice, practice. Take photos everyday and practice." We were required to use more than 3 rolls for each project. We watched a film on Sally Mann, and that's when it hit me. Even the greatest of photographers hate their own pictures. They practice everyday until they get it right.

Great comment guidelines. I think you’re on the right track here. Some of those comments should go somewhere else.

Hey.. Just stopping in to say happy 2008! I can't wait to see what you come up with this year!

I know it seems like I fell off the earth, but I still check in here every so often.

What you said about negative scanners freaked me out. But then again, I never did like Walmart's photo department. They're always scratching negatives or printing things off center. Bleh.

Anyway! I'm glad you got a new negative scanner! :D

I just got a new camera this year too, so we should collaborate if you're not busy!!

Or you know, just have coffee.
I think I owe you some mixed cds!

Well, have a beautiful day!
xoxo
