Patrick.Brian's photostream |
Photography for me is at the same time, an escape from everyday life and part of everyday life itself. It connects me to my surroundings and connects me to myself. Life and memories past live on in photography. Whether it is a self portrait, a sunrise, or a flower, every photo has a story that I can recall and retell in an instant.
Perhaps, it is not the pursuit of the photo, but the pursuit of the memories that live in each photography that draws me to my passion.

"Many pictures turn out to be limp translations of the known world instead of vital objects which create an intrinsic world of their own. There is a vast difference between taking a picture and making a photograph."

"The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera."
- Dorthea Lange
"Aim at perfection in everything, though in most things it is unattainable. However, they who aim at it, and persevere, will come much nearer to it than those whose laziness and despondency make them give it up as unattainable."
