"8. “ I always thought good photos were like good jokes. If you have to explain it, it just isn’t that good. – Anonymous

Sometimes it is interesting to hear the story behind the photo and you see the photo in a new light. But in most cases a photo shouldn’t need a story to back it up. It has to speak for itself."

This is why I have my photography page on fb. Here, my pictures are personal and have a story for me but because I am learning about the taking pictures and editing I don't put much info at all on the the fb page where I share these same pictures. People are encouraged to form their own opinions based on the picture as it is. Good quotes.

2. “ Your first 10,000 photographs are your worst. – Henri Cartier-Bresson

CONFIRMED!!
I just hit 15k photos since I got my DSLR, and the last 5000 are infinitely better than the first 10k in so many ways.

thanks for sharing!

@sdpace It's awesome how you kept them. I've been keeping my rejects but the space issue keeps coming up... It's it great to be able to see the progress/progression? :)
May 12th, 2011
@sdpace Btw, how are you liking your new camera? how is the whole saving up for the wide-angle lens going?
May 12th, 2011
@shortperson2002 Oh neat! I was hoping people would jump in like you and share theirs as well. Thanks!

@miley89 Yeah :) I think the page is linked to another site that has more quotes.

@deliriousoul I rarely delete anything. I'm sure that will change when I'm upwards of 20k. :) Still sacking away my pennies for that wide angle lens. I got the new camera with some bonus money that I wasn't expecting to get...a nice surprise. I love it! Thanks for asking. :D

This is so true and I have seen so many of them via the 365 Project! Just little moments in photographers' days that are very special.

Not a famous quote, but my personal one: Photography allows people to see the world through my eyes.
