There are images that you take that must be taken. Not the quick cliche snap shots that we all succumb to and have to take because we feel that nothing is real unless on film. This mentality of the run and gun approach to taking images separates us from mother nature and even though it makes us feel we are interacting with something outside ourselves in actuality we are using the camera as a barrier not to explore nature's subjects.
The demands of our controlled structured reality dictates to us our daily routines. We fear going beyond the surface of our daily lives and explore the gifts of the natural world where we will be able to build a relationship with and a growing understanding.
Humans are the one creature that wants to control the whole planet for their own simplified understanding of profit over compassion. The intellect of humanity has been conditioned to own and not share.
We are creatures of habit and we solidify memories as real stepping stones to future actions. Even though these memories are only markers we needed to open up our future path, our own journey to self realization.
We must open up and participate in the event not as an observer but as a intuitive mind trying to access the deeper battle present in this external subject which is denying us access to his composition.
We must connect with our subject in real time not under the cloud of verbiage that destroys your true relationship with the external world.
Image creation is not real, it is a feeling, a connection an intuition in your mind with an external subject that isn't real. It isn't real because you haven't created it yet. All you have is your exploring

Image creation is not real, it is a feeling, a connection an intuition in your mind with an external subject that isn't real. It isn't real because you haven't created it yet. All you have is your exploring
consciousness.
You see the signs all around, take the picture here and be satisfied with the easy snap shot. But that is not what drew you to this place. Something called you to take this path here and now and as you stand and take in the magnificence of your surroundings into yourself you begin to explore intuitively the vision present in you.
Can you bring forth that vision and connect to your outer nature that is present?
Not an ego looking for gratification in the ordinary routine of stale compositions but a sense that something is present in the landscape before you but it hasn't yet been composed.
Knowing can be a limiting force, so you let go of the tyranny of words and intellect and just be present in stillness of your growing awareness.
Your mind needs to settle in and realize that the creative perception is not ready to be made yet. Time is nothing in these states of the inner power of spiritual force. Your attraction to the subject is only the first step in realizing your intimacy deepening as you let go of the need to accomplish everything in seconds, when you might need hours to feel the true creative force expanding your experience of insightfulness.
There is nothing in front of you but details that need composing. Light that needs to be studied and your inner clock must stop its demand to move on and you must relax and take part in the beauty of the details that will begin to form a subject that wasn't present but is now because you were able to releases your inner tension, your inner demands and wait for your vision to begin making the scene.
We always want instant gratification in capturing fleeting moments of times endless pursuit of confusing mental demands.
Don't allow forgetful details that were working themselves up to the surface of your inner landscape evaporate suddenly because you were once again distracted by the structure of the controlling reality you were trying to break free from, to find some deeper connection with the subject at hand.
You can try and ignore your deeper intuitions of color combinations and accumulation of compositions never tried but if you are purposeful and strong in your ability to see new ways of seeing this world you will be able to work through the layers of stale dominating copycat structured ideas that have not come close to seeing the subject in its full array of beauty.
The image needs a sensitive mind not a roaming eye, a photographer that feels the connection and wants a permanent relationship with the scene. Natures will always open up to someone actually trying to dig deeper, get to the roots of the scene and not relying on someones previous image seen in a magazine destroy the uniqueness of your vision and your connection with nature's beauty.
