A photograph that mirrors reality, cannot compare to one that reflects the spirit.
Hmm, profound; they can be mentioned in the same breath, however.

If you're photographing in color
you show the color of their clothes -
if you use black and white,
you will show the color of their soul.

Which one? I tend to lean more towards of the spirit and passion behind the images. But when I post that stuff, people tend to think that I live in my parents basement, and smoke weed and meditate all day...

Russ, you say that like it's a bad thing.
Seriously though, your quotes (which I assume reflect your viewpoint) resonate with my sensibilities too. Photography is so complex that way - it's technical yet (dare I say) spiritual.

You're correct.
Photography, like all art forms, is 95% feeling and passion. And 5% technique.

Hey Man! What's wrong with that? Hang on a minute Russ..........("hey mom, can you bring me down a ham sandwich, brownies and some pickles, I got the munchies?") any way dude like I was saying they weren't doing anything with the basement anyway and somebodys gotta use it. Besides I haven't figured out my major yet and as soon as I do I'm gonna apply for college, then I'll have to quit my job at the candle factory. I gotta go cause I got a major case of cotton mouth and need a drink and my strawberry patchoulli incense has burned out, bummer man!
