1. rick615 (327) | 3 years ago | First of all, I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. I enjoy taking photos, though I no longer spend a lot of time with them except on vacations.
I studied fine art photography in college with Becky Young. I then did photojournalism in Graduate school to help make some spare $$. I learned to mix both the work and the fun.
I now take my camera with me most of the time, but rarely get it out. On occasion I still take some pictures, both candid and model pictures, usually the latter when someone requests.
I do believe one can find beauty in nearly everything; you just have to find the right perspective.

spcbrass (621) | 3 years ago | I see your point and it is a good one.
I started this discussion because a firend of mine who takes a lot of pictures just for fun and for no real artistic purpose asked me how I can take such great artistic looking shots. I explained to him that I toook my camera everywhere and took pictures of everything. Sometimes I just took pictures but other times I was really trying to capture the moment.
That is the reason why I proposed this discussion to see what others think of their picture taking. Thanks for your reply.

spcbrass (621) | 3 years ago | I have taken many pictures in the past 4 months, most of them are pictures of nature, but lately I have been taking a lot of photos that are more artistic in nature. You can see some of my photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/spcbrass/

5. rhinoboy (1354) | 3 years ago | I don't usually keep a camera with me, so most of my decent shots happen when I'm on holiday, just because i have the opportunities. I like to take landscape shotsmostly and pretty much anything that might look good.
I've taken more than ever since my daughter was born, but that is wearing off now. Since joining microstock sites, I will be (hopefully) taking some more artistic and contemporary shots.

spcbrass (621) | 3 years ago | Even though I take mine with me everywhere I end up getting very few if any shots. The moment has to strike me to take the pictures now. I think back to how many great things I had seen years ago and had no camera to document the moment. That is hy it goes everywhere with me now.

6. western_valleygirl (750) | 3 years ago | I take my digital camera with me to as many trips and occaisions as I can. I try really to capture memories and emotions. There have been times when I have forgotten it, and that can be upsetting, if I really wanted to capture certain shots. I like to get poses of people and groups that look fun and interesting. I also like to take scenic pictures. I am trying to get better at it, but it will take sometime for me to perfect my precision and settings on the camera, and to also take shots that are "photographically right." It is fun, even if it can be annoying lugging the camera around (it is pretty small, but I am too, and I am always "askew").

spcbrass (621) | 3 years ago | I take mine with me everywhere because sometimes you just never know when you are going to see a great picture opportunity. My camera is medium sized but it fits easily into my jacket pocket. The hard part is getting it out and having the propersettings before taking the shot. Sometimes you don't have very long before the shot itself is gone.

7. bigpinkmomma (349) | 3 years ago | I used to take pictures mostly of my children, and of course expanded it to events . They are grown up now so I don't take near as many pictures. Since I switched to a digital camera I take a lot of pictures of my pets . I also take pictures of objects that I want my online friends to see . The last few months I have started taking picture that I guess would be viewed as artistic . I am always trying to get a good picture of the sun rising, or the ocean or the changing seasons.

spcbrass (621) | 3 years ago | I like digital cameras a lot better because you can see right away if you have taken a good picture or not. Most people use camera's to take pictures of their kids or pets or of their vacation. I have taken quite a number of those pictures myself. Lately I have been trying more to express the artistic side of my photos with lighting and colors and angles.

8. bobmnu (2652) | 3 years ago | Most of my photos are of sporting events. I like to try to capture the action and the emotion of the sport. Some would call that artistic. I am in the process of posting some of my action photos to mylot. Visit me and view my photos as I add more to my photos.

spcbrass (621) | 3 years ago | I like taking action photos at sporting events too. My camera does a fairly good job at taking those, however I would like a camera with a higher shutter speed so that I can capture clearer shots then I do now.
