Photography is not just science.. It’s an art.

The title speaks for itself. The scientific aspects of photography can be both overwhelming and fascinating, so much so that for some photographers photography comes to be just that: a scientific process that they attempt to master over their lifetime. However, to achieve mastery of the technical side of photography is to address only one of the two aspects of photography. The result is often technically excellent photographs that lack emotion.

I recently picked up a Canon Rebel Xs DSLR and am looking forward to putting it to full use during the fall colors this season. Will try to take some technically great pictures that actually depict something to the mind as well rather than just the eye.
