the thing about photos

I couldn't ever really define what i like about photos. For one, its easier to just see with your eyes than take a picture; you remember most of it anyway. And capturing a Kodak moment is one thing, but taking a good photo is really bloody hard, especially with a manual; you're adjusting your position, and your lens, and the aperture, and the shutter speed, AND the iso, and then, leg cramp! yea, it happens that way sometimes.

The thing about a good photo is that it can transform any regular, absolutely average thing or event into something truly magnificent. Some times you can capture something so unique, you might never have known it existed if not for the fact that you pushed that little black button at just the right time. Try taking a picture of the mug you drink tea in everyday, focus on the tip of the rim, and whoa! You'd be like, is that my mug?! and then you'd be like, it totally is! and then you'd be like, sweet! :P
