Lights & Darks...

I was just sitting here proofing and had a thought...  And of course, I wanted to write about it.  {smile}

I edit each image individually... no batch processing for me.  And that's because each image is different.  I see the final product in my mind as I'm clicking the shutter.  Then once I'm home, I take the time to do whatever it is I need to in order to make that final image the same as what my mind could see.  For me, photography is all about emotion.  About lights and darks.  Opposites.  Contrast.  The good and the bad... such as life.   So as I'm thinking about this light and dark dance that creates the emotion in a photograph, I immediately think of a shot that Shane got on our trip to Huntsville...

Little buddies just taking it all in...
