Sitter med "Galen Rowell´s Inner Game of Outdoor Photography" (288 s) som jag hittade i H.fors.
Det är ingen lättläst bok men den är fylld med visdom. Betar av den med penna i hand, hittar mängder med kloka tanker, som jag försöker förstå.
"The initial act of visualizing a meaningful photograph has more in common with meditation than with professional skill. Strong personal vision is what National Geographic photographers and camera club winners have in common", skriver han
Lite längre ner på sidan skriver han om " --- commitment to the inner path, that the best outdoor pros seem to share. Without an energy source for empowerment, the most perfect inner path is as useless as a Ferrari out of gas. You can talk and dream about its future all you want, but it´s not going anywhere until you fuel it and start moving."
