“I think photographs should be provocative and not tell you what you already know. It takes no great powers or magic to reproduce somebody's face in a photograph. The magic is in seeing people in new ways.” Duane Michals


While I am a firm believer in photography of whats there. I think this quote is very true when it comes to being a successful photographer. You can take a photo of someones face, but what makes it standout are those freckles that were brought out by over exposing the picture. Or maybe when you sharpened the image to convey the feelings of the subject. These small changes make a world of difference when successfully capturing a subject.
