Today I heard something that has made me believe in my beliefs a little bit more.
"A photographer does not make an image. It is the viewer who makes an image. They bring to each image their own values and own belief systems and as a result of which the image resonates with them.AND the image is made."
Very true. And that is why I strongly believe that we need to do what we got to do irrespective of what the world thinks about what we do.
We cannot tailor-make what we do to what resonates with others.That is a losing proposition.
One has to do what one believes in, what resonates within them.
The world will appreciate it or criticize it; accept it or reject it. It all depends on what resonates with them at that point in their lives.
If the world does not accept what you do it is still not the end of the world. Because you would still be doing what resonates with your beliefs and values.
It is as simple and as black and white as that. More often than not, life is simply black and white. It is only when we want to compromise that we introduce that in-between-shade-of gray.
