Photography is so much more than Pixels

Don't know if it's because Christmas is on the horizon, but this evening sat here at my computer replying to emails I felt compelled to look at family photographs.

Saw this one of my Grandad. Loved him. Opened it in Photoshop and after a few minutes of making edits, immediately it made me think about how important Photography is and how much good we're able to do with it.

Photography is so much more than Pixels.


We can spend a lot of money and time striving for the perfect photograph, but what exactly is that?

I remember presenting at The Professional Imaging Show in The Netherlands a few years back, all about "The Importance of Photography" when at the end of my presentation I was approached by an attendee who had clearly been crying.

He went on to tell me that the last photograph he took of his Dad (who had since passed) ended up being blurred and out of focus.; he was devastated that of all the times to 'mess up' (his words) it was then.

I got it. I totally understood why he was upset but trying to help I asked him ... "What do you see when you look at that blurred photograph? Is your Dad blurred when you see him in your mind?

"No" he answered.

”Then that is the most important thing of all. Of course we all want the sharpest, best composed pictures with great colours, but the most important thing here is that in your head you picture your Dad and in your head that picture isn't blurred, and that will always be the way when you look at THAT photograph.”
