line of sight


Shooting a picture is holding your breath as all your faculties focus on capturing fleeting reality; then taking a picture becomes a moment of great physical and intellectual delight.

It is a matter of putting your brain, your eye and your heart in the same line of sight. It is a way of life.

Mr Carter-Bresson was right shooting a picture that you are proud of requires the eye, heart and brain in the same plain.

Shooting what other like requires an eye for what is acceptable, no brain, no heart required.

Carter-Bresson shot images for his own pleasure and the world loved it. He was lucky in more ways than one.
