People are beginning to have a hard time thinking for themselves. We are being groomed to accept artificial intelligence as our companion in decision making but in reality it is a means of controlling your intellect into making decisions not for ourselves but by a strangers voice, controlling what you think and should feel. The voice gives you options but it is a controlled environment, a narrowing of your ability to make decisions for yourself.
We are overwhelmed by the complexity of life's constant pressure to make decisions that we must make minute to minute, second to second. Our intellect is on overload trying to gather an infinite amount of visual and corrupt wording that it loses its foundation and validation as a controlling influence on your everyday choices. Your intellect is eroding, being replaced by an artificial intelligence that is not your own inner known personality but now known as an outside force of deceptive independence. We are retreating from individuality, the hall mark of an intelligent, independent being, to a trained circus animal allowing external voices to dictate to us our behavior.
Our parents dominated our conscious intellect for decades until we broke free from the controlling purpose of their love. We must think for ourselves. Photography is a perfect example of repetitious copycats of external nature. We must develop an intuitive force of will to relax and accept the subject for who they are. Both inanimate and animate creatures of nature.
Photography is your own vision. Your own unique style and your personal representation of external, physical space.
When you are in tune to your environment, studying the scene present before you, you are in a state of heighten awareness. You and your subject are on the same playing field and your focus, your attentive intuition is beginning to see the composition, light, exposure and your closeness to the subject manifesting itself as a flower blooming.
Having a sense of calming interpretation of physical space opening up, accepting your universal telemetry of insightful anticipation. You begin to understand that demanding a subject presents itself is a delusion of selfish ego. Having this attitude will only confuse and alienate your subjects purpose and your own. Freedom to be present, (not over thinking the subject in front of you) is the bonding influence we all must attain if we are to be accepted by the present unfolding scene before us.
You can't demand a response from your subject through demanding arrogance. In order to unify your perception through intuitive awareness you must allow for nature's nuances to shift also, to acknowledge your presence with an opening vision, a feeling of connectedness of two opposites coming together.
Insights build a relationship with you and your subject by anticipating your subjects beauty by the shifting light and a natural composition that allows your subject not to be overbearing in the scene but to be forward as one steps from a uniformed line to a myriad of possibilities to accept your inherent vision beginning to form as you study the scene before you.
When we see a beautiful scene whether it be a portrait or a natural phenomenon we must allow the natural progression of our intuitive feelings to guide us to that moment of truth. That moment when all the elements of composition and natural beauty come together to give one a sense of awe and great fullness that you were present in body and spirit to see the revelation but also the privilege to create an image, a personal expression of your inner landscape objectified in the presence of a shared accomplishment.
An image that is part of your inner psyche at the deepest levels of respect for the natural gift of purpose with the external world allowing it's beauty to be taken from the landscape, because of your willful focus on a unique detail that illuminated the interconnectedness of life's gifts.
Open your senses to the overwhelming rush of lost time for the human race. This incomprehensible ability of us humans to deny our unique vision and to react in life by retreating from awareness and not be proactive to our changing our future and others by opening up our heart to the miraculous being of nature. Most of us sabotage our success by filling our minds with do's and must do, in order to escape our own responsibility to become our true vision. Success will not happen by abandoning your intuitive nature.
A willingness to breath deep and enjoy the sacred moments you alone are present in. You mustn't hurry past the gifts that are presented to a mind set on anger and frustration with his life as it is. You alone can change from a beast of burden to an accepting partner with nature, to reveal your inner beauty not as man vs nature, to see which can conquer the other first.
Your first step is to be present in the atmosphere of perception allowing your subject and yourself those moments of complete fullness of insight, as you form an image internal to you alone but gifted to you by being present in nature's beauty as it is, in an insightful way and not through mans ego of aggression and dominance.
