Everyone enjoys PASTIMES, right? Would it be a stretch to point out that photography is one of my favorite PASTIMES? Some say that photography is not an art. What is art? Form, light, textures. What is photography? Form, light, textures. I believe the photo I have chosen to share of clumps of reeds floating in the water at dusk depicts form, light and texture; I give you art.

Beautiful! If this isn’t art, I don’t know what is! Some things labeled art are much less artsy than most photography. Art vs Craft…it’s an argument that has no conclusion and who cares? Just keep creating whatever satisfies that inner need.
