photomatopoeia

pho•to•mat•o•poe•ia | ˌfotoˌmatəˈpēə |

noun
the image of a subject associated with what is photographed

Words certainly evoke the imagination, yet it is photography that evokes emotion. With the idea of experiencing photography, I want to change the conversation from the technical to the emotional side of what makes a good picture. Ultimately, we photograph to record the human condition, and without emotion, it’s just another picture in the sea of a trillion photos.

  1. What is it about this photo that captures my imagination? Well, I suppose it is just that. It plays with your imagination. It wants you to complete the story. There is a story about the person in the boots, yet there is even a greater story about the relationship between the presence of the other legs. But, don’t get me wrong, the boots are just killer too.
