knight pix's photostream  

Who am I? Idealist, dreamer, artist, non-conformist? Who knows. I for one don't. I'm still trying to figure it out.

I see beauty in everything and everyone around me. I strive to rise above society's shallow and hollow perception of beauty and look beyond the superficial to see the good in everything and everyone. I use the medium of photography to come to terms with myself and the world around me. I have a deep fascination with humanity, indeed the human body, and all its beauty. I have struggled with body image issues for too long, allowing my perception of my body to be swayed by other people's opinions and what the media and society consider ideal. I ended up being ungrateful and failing to appreciate myself. Through photography, I've come to a new level of understanding and confidence.

Life is too short to waste hating the way we look or the imperfect world around us. I believe life is for living, for appreciating the beauty of God's creation and celebrating our humanity in all its imperfection. I am also in awe of the sheer beauty of the world in which we live, everything - people, flowers, the sun and moon, sunrise, sunset, trees, clouds, you name it.

I try to capture this as best as possible in my pictures. I don't claim to be a good photographer. Far from it. I'm just learning and there's so much to learn on flickr.

I welcome comments on my photos (lets face it, some might look pretty crappy compared to yours) and am quite open to any being made faves. Feel free to add me as a contact or even a friend.

And if for any reason you look like spongebob squareface

or your profile is completely devoid of any description or you fave a pic and have "nothing available" to me, consider yourself blocked.

For genuine flickr members, I'm really sorry I've had to restrict the downloading my pictures as some untalented and dishonest people have been downloading other people's pictures and reposting them on flickr as their own work.
