here are two shots from today. Both have suffered minor color tuning (euphemism), nothing too drastic. what i find interesting is that nearly anything can make a subject for a good quality photography. we can probably agree that this is art, but what makes it so? there's no pretty model here, and no rose pedal. somehow nature gets clumped in to a huge amount of art (painting, photography, even songs, poems, and stories) so what is it that is so fascinating to us about this all? the forms? the colours? some hidden concept?i've been thinking a lot about intentionality lately, and i think that might have a role to play in deciding what becomes art. take the blank "painting" on display at the museum, for example. or some of piccasso's stuff. a child could have done either, it could be argued. but would it still be art? or just a happy coincidence?
