Photograph Fetishism

I’ve gone back to enjoying photos for what is pictured vs the photo being the object of appreciation. I’m *so* tired of photo fetishism.

I like how the shadow keeps this from being an explicit “nude photo” (which was on purpose, of course).

The Difference between Taking and Making a Photograph

Ultimately, the difference between “making” and “taking” a photograph corresponds directly with whether the photograph was planned (pre-conceived and/or posed) or whether it was a candid capture of a non-directed event or occurrence. Sometimes, within a planned photo session, something fortuitous but unintentional will occur and be photographed. In street photography, some photographers will wait at a scene they’ve designated as particularly “photogenic” and wait for a person to enter and complete the scene. These latter two instances are probably best thought of as a *mix* of taking and making.

Ever communicated with a contractor and gotten strong "good ol' boy" bullshit vibes where you feel you're going to get blindsided by a big ol' bill because they keep talking how more & more is going to be needed and they don't put anything in writing?
