LW1378 - Remind Us, Show Us, Reveal to Us

In the broadest possible overview, photography does one of three things. It either reminds us of something, it shows us something we cannot see for ourselves, or it reveals to us some truth previously unknown. I've often found it useful to think about this as I work an image or a project. What do I want this image or project to accomplish? Does it work as a reminder, a window, or a revelation?

"How to" tutorials and camera reviews are everywhere on YouTube, but if you're interested in photography and the creative life, you need to know about the incredible resources you can access as a member of LensWork Online.

I believe there is a deep rooted limitation in the ubiquitous social media thumbs up or thumbs down. It is primarily used as a visual confirmation (thumbs up) that the photographer has faithfully produced what we expect them to produce, or (thumbs down) they have missed the mark. Such a rating system completely eliminates the idea of visual revelation.
