We live in a world saturated with images – and it’s only getting worse.  Facebook, Flicker, Instagram  . . . everyone is giving us more to see at every turn.  So what turns a photograph into a work of art?  A picture that we want to decorate our living space with, that we want to look at over and over again.  There are many elements: color / composition / subject / setting.  A lot of it depends on not just looking at the world when you venture out, but in seeing the possibilities as you frame a picture in your lens.  This is what I try to do as I set out with a camera in hand.
