You see shape, and how the light hits things, how the color changes from one end of the photo to the other, and how movement affects the mood of the photo.

There are rules about perception, but not about photography.

Always wait for the trigger. The trigger is the final part of the puzzle, the reason you want to shoot.

Had I not been told to look, I would have quite, ignorant of what was really there, because I had 'made plans' and was wearing visual and emotional blinders that limited my perceptions and my vision.

If you don't have a camera, the best thing you can do is describe how great it looked.

You can't just turn on when something happens, you have to be turned on all the time. Then things happen.

Always carry a camera, it's tough to shoot a picture without one.
