Question

What to it mean to be a Cartographer of Light? To be Master of how light behaves. To know the rules,.. and then know how to bend them to your discretion. That is the question.

Answer 1

We live our lives,.. in the cosmic sense,.. in the blink of eye. And in that blink,.. there are so many moments that pass that, when caught on film or other means,.. bring those fleeting , exceptional moments back to life for all to see.

That is our gift, our legacy as Photographers... to Chart the Light that we pass through with exceptional skill and interpretations. To make those charts for all to see. Behind the camera,.. we are the Masters of our domain.
