Photography is my hobby, not my religion.

Another attitude towards photography i wanna share… :-)

Last time, i quoted a post from www.riffspics.com on handling photography criticisms (read my post HERE). Now i found something inspiring off his blog again, and i’m reposting it because it is exactly the attitude that i wanna have towards my craft.

This is from his blog’s text widget, titled The Reason For Riff’s Photography Journal:

My photography is not exotic. I don’t roam the world to capture images and I don’t have expensive equipment. The photography that I do is of everyday life…

…Photography is for anyone, at any level of photographic expertise, who wants to capture images for any reason, and if you cannot have fun with photography then why do it.

…Enjoy the journey and have fun with your camera. Photograph your world the way that you see it and create those images that you will keep forever…

It’s like i’m hearing myself from these words. And so i’m keeping it here, in my blog. :)

Thanks Mr. Glenn Riffey.
