How does one keep up the pace creating imagery as you get closer to the end of your visual sensitivity?  

Will your closing moments become your last unique focused attempt to create an image worthy of your visual talent? 

Or will your ending be one of what if's and excuses for not allowing your intuitive self to guide you through your photographic compositions when you were younger, allowing you the freedom to practice your inner vision by an external realization, rearranging the scene to fit your visual intuition with a subject accepting of your presence.

This constant battle with inhibition, the relunctance to step out of ourselves and begin living a full life, bursting with ideas and subjects that are calling to us to open ourselves to them and join them with our inner compositions which enhance our ability to see details, others can't see, through our focused, heightened awareness of our inner connection with outer details that gives a special unique touch to the composition. And that is the basis for creating a great image that give and take between subject and photographer. 


You must lose your fear of our images being shown to the outside world. The more we inhibit our lives, the less we will accomplish. Live in your beautiful awareness, bursting outward with your inner talent. You can always find negativity surrounding you and your artistic talents. Perseverance to continue your inner quest for artistic expression, giving you strength in your abilities to fight for your individuality.

Fears enhance our feelings of inadequacy, allowing the intellect to restrict our mental outlook, which then tries to dictate to you, your visual future and your place in this framework of a structured reality. This concrete reality insists on the conformity of your mind and body to follow the orders of someone or something (social media) you think is superior to you when in fact we are all equal and live under the same sun until we get conditioned to ignore our inner feeling and our fresh perspectives, whereby we retreat to the herd instincts of society, by keeping our head down and with fear in our hearts we do what they tell us to do. What kind of existence is this?  

We need to become free of our mental chains and we must express our inner passions, our photographic perceptions openly with confidence in order to feel alive and part of something bigger than just us. 

We see through our photography the beauty in nature and the wonderful atmosphere of creating a meaningful, unique image.

Physical space is overwhelming our senses. It hampers our ability to be ourselves in a world of look alike minds of conformity and the inability to think for themselves, which creates a dependency on another that could determine who you don't want to become. 

Each day that passes moves us further away from your intuitive self. Changes do not happen overnight it will be a struggle to explore your inner world and bring those insights into the
external expressions in your life.

We all must realize that we are being monitored on social media by trolls working for advertisers and they are not really interested in what you post because that isn't where their money making interest lie, you are being monitored for what you click on and what interests you appear to have. Nothing you do and say on social media goes unnoticed and eventually it will get partnered with an advertiser that will begin posting ads on your sight to get you to buy their product. 

Social media monitors your clicks and through this spies on your so called personal life, now exposed to the world, and is able to generalize your personality traits and find products that might tempt you to purchase. If you want to know the truth, none of these sites care that much about your personal life or your artistic skills. All they want to do is sell you something!   

Everything on social media is money driven. Everything on social media is a distraction from living your life as an individual. The herd moves to the corral to be texted, by the new and greatest products that you don't need! 

You need to be living your life through your own insights not by the constant bombardment of ads demanding you shop until your broke. What kind of a life are we trying to live? In truth we aren't living unless we are free to be our unique selves by creating our inner perceptions and then externalizing them through our art. The feeling of being connected to something bigger than ourselves, which will take a lifetime to understand, is what living for your unique perspective is all about.

Look deeper into your conscious mine and begin to sort out what influenced you to be on the path you now walk. If you are not sure just begin the process of looking at the world differently. Put alittle joy in your presence here on earth and enjoy your future journeys without overthinking every little step.  

We know that to stick to one path all your life is foolish. There will be many side paths that will excite and demand your full artistic skills but that is what living freely is all about. Multiple opportunities and your ability to adapt to new circumstances will challenge you to become more than who you once were. Be proud of your accomplishments.

Find that spark of imagination and the will power that can focus your attention on your individual feelings and your unique inner visual expressions.

You need to pursue with concentration and stamina your visual individuality and unique perspective as you begin to develop your own unique style in your image creation.

Coalescence, uniting mind and physical space, this interaction through inner perception understood as an intuitive insight whereby the mind and body unite in seeing the landscape present before you as an expression of your inner feeling in that moment, which intensifies the need for the unique composition that you are moving toward.

In today's hyper escalation of image taking we are bombarded with the bad and the ugly on a constant basis. If you look at imagery enough you could become jaded because you think everything has already been captured, so why should I try and create my own images, won't that just be adding to the trillions of images already circulating that have a clone like look to them? 

But you are not a run and gun snap shooter! You have an intense need, an intense vision that needs to be expressed. You are an individual that doesn't feel the need to take pics of his or her life exposing the minutia of details without purpose. Your image creation is focused through understanding your unique perspective and these images give the viewer a visual revelation taking place.
   

This is why you need to get started now with developing your own original, personal vision. And that is the main point to remember, you have the talent waiting to be explored and your photographic eye is beginning to see an innovative, self realized composition in the scene and you will be able to use your imagination more frequently to go beyond the stereotypes of commonality that is portrayed over and over in this world of selfies, without depth of character, to making an image interesting enough to be studied. 


Open up your mind to the infinite possibilities surrounding you as you begin your journey creating personal images with unique characteristics that only you can express. And don't forget to have fun creating your individual expressions.
