Sensory Overload

"I believe that more and more, we are defining our environments not as the spaces themselves, in terms of the buildings or architecture, but rather by the objects and devices that we buy and surround ourselves with. ... I would like that message to carry through universally," Seymour said

Do you agree or disagree?
As an aspiring photographer how does this make you feel about your photography?

I think Seymour's statement is based off personal experience, thus making it innacurate to relate his idea to the whole world.

This photo is 'electric' because the cherry pink wig is prominent as opposed to all other elements in this photograph. COLD This photograph is perfectly exposed in my opinion. A lot of light was seeping through the window because it was mid-day. The rule of thirds is implied in this photo, as well as lin...

What invention during the 17th Century helped man get a step closer to creating the modern camera?
