Miss the shots / Jätan kaadreid vahele

For some reason, at some point I started to notice that I miss shots, sometimes intentionaly and sometimes unconciously. For sceneries I decide them to let be sometimes. It feels much more exciting, experience of letting something to be as it is. Trying to burn it to my iris and absorb it, than to attemp to box it into the camera. As I do that, these scenes stick to the minds eye in a different fashion, they start to grow and become something else as brain works them over. The longer they tingle in the back of my brain the more mystique they become, making it much richer experience. Since I did not capture them to camera, I have no picture to go back than to my minds eye. Try it sometimes :) Take the most interesting find you got and let it be. Watch it as you would photograph it, go further, absorb it and at one point you will notice something new is happening :)

Almost the same goes while photographing people. Of course missing the shots where character is exploited in an unpleasant moment is something which I desire to do. But I have figured that we all have moments which belong to us, not to someone else. Moments which may be good photos but which are not my to pick up. It is really subjective and everyone sees it different but it is a matter of right feeling. At which wave do I and the subject amplify. Seems to me thats where the key to portrait photgraphy lies.

I changed out the bottom picture with above since I felt it works better. Although I like the bottom picture more for some reason :/
