The guy behind the lens

My Photo
Suburban Dallas, Texas, United States
I am a science teacher at an independent school in Dallas, Texas. I work mostly with middle schoolers and love to open their eyes about the natural wonders of our world. My photography stems from that desire to share what I've encountered of the wider world. Please feel free to visit my web site WWW.BlueLionPhotos.com

As most of you  can tell from this blog and also from my website, I do not shoot many portraits. Indeed it's rare to see people in any of my images.  I cam across a blog post  by a portrait photographer who posted something that lots of photographers encounter over time.  I thought I'd link to her post here because this is something that both photogs & non-photogs should appreciate.

I firmly believe the  most significant tool a photographer posses is their  brain. After all, what the public sees from a photographer is not only seen through the lens of a camera, but also interpreted through the lens of  that photographers brain and experience. 100 photographers shooting the same subject will produce a vast array of different interpretations.
