Yes, in many instances M-line with 24 mm set to infinity with the stop down and shooting “from belly” is the way to go. From the different prospective life exists between the moments when Henri Cartier Bresson pressed the button…In photography we drag the Reality by its ears into a place and time where we feel comfortable to handle it… and then we call it Real. I find it is very boring and self-restricting in photography. Too much recreation of hypocrisy!
I wish I could paint. I kind of feel that an entire Photography is a dildo of Painting. A painter dealing with pure reality (Real of Imaginary). A photographer is searching for a substitution of reality and, by the way, most of his findings are accidental. (Though I understand, possess great knowledge, and can fluently operate in pure photography language) Still, in painting the “creator/author” drives process but in photography the dead process has too much influence to the artistic result. This is perhaps why the best of my “serious” photographs exist as sketches. (I’m dangers enough to do this)
