To truly be a pioneer you hafta pioneer.
You hafta explore and get lost.
You run up blind alleys.
You take what comes.
You let it be.

Pioneering is not goal seeking.
You prepare for the expected
and expect to be unprepared
for the unexpected, and make
what result you can of that. To
believe you'll make the "best"
of what comes your way is a
bridge too far. You must be too
dissatisfied to settle for how it
is at the moment, but willing to
leave it as-is and move on, to
no preordained destinations or
ports of call.

Thank you. "Pioneering" can well mean
getting by on the cruder side of things.

In photo, it can mean living with noise,
distortion, uncorrectable color lighting,
and much other stuff that some find to
be insufferable. I alway figger that if all
those flaws are what the viewer notices,
then the picture was never worth taking
in the first place
, a picture so worthless
that even if tech existed to eliminate all
the flaws and look "sparkling clean" and
geek-peeper perfect, the finished image
is a wholesomely perfect toadall bore.

Let the good times roll and let it all hang
out. Tech level "good enuf for rock and
roll" is all it takes to present an image of
anything actually interesting.

========================


Would an affordable camera that could
banish all tech flaws, always render stuff
"picture perfect", appeal to me ? Sure, if
I needed to buy a new camera anyway.

But I hope to find and deliver scenes and
subjects strong enuf in themselves that
"ordinary" viewers are intrigued enuf to
never even notice tech aspects whether
compromised or perfected. Acoarst, by
"compromised" I don't mean "disastrous".
Even imperfection has to meet some sort
of minimum standards !

Every trip to the street is a pioneered experience for me. One never knows what will be around the next corner. You have proven that with this set of images. All are interesting, some more than others. Thanks for posting, look forward to more ... pioneering !!!
