Everybody loves a good story because stories are the best way to evoke memories and emotions in people. They can make us excited; they can make us laugh or cry or make us feel empathy for someone. Visual stories help us to understand each other better. For me, photography is not just about making photographs, it is about choosing a life of curiosity, exploration, and wonder and sharing my story in a visual presentation to others. Photography is a visual language. It is not just about composition, but how composition can help us capture the mood and tell the story we want to share.
Well said. Tied to stories are, for me, memories of that moment in time & place.
