Advancing Your Photography. Marc Silber
TRAIN YOUR EYE TO SEE IMAGES
It’s good practice to always look for images, with or without a camera. Whenever you have a moment, riding on a subway, waiting for a meeting, or out on a walk, try to find the images in that environment.
It can help to “frame” with your hands making two “Ls” on top of each other or touching your thumbs together (as you see me doing on page 36), and look through them with only one eye, to simulate what a camera would see with a single lens. Simply find images that are interesting to you. Why not use a camera to do this? Because we’re working on training your eye, freed from the camera or any equipment, just you and the scene. Think of it as a workout for your eye!
I often will walk into an environment and just know there is an image there, and like a game of hide and seek, will look for it until I find it!
Repeat the above drills – building your mental collection of art, and then framing with your hands. And feel free to come back with your camera and create an actual image!
CRASH COURSE/SUMMARY
1. The most important and central part of the cycle of photography is visualization: first seeing the photograph as a mental image. It guides all the other parts of the cycle.
