People would look at my pictures and say, "Your pictures make the world look more beautiful than it actually is." I realize that people say that as a compliment, but I've always found myself disagreeing. I see so much beauty in this world, and I try to capture it in a shot, but I always find myself not satisfied, not able to capture the beauty in its wholeness. I love photography because it reveals the beauty of nature (of humans and of the world). No matter how good a picture, I don't believe it can even come close to describing a fraction of nature's magnificence. No matter how good a camera, I don't believe it can ever come close to seeing what human eyes can see. I love photography because it creates not only beautiful art, but ability to see the beauty that it already there. And I guess that's ultimately what I want to do with photography. To let people see, and say, "look how beautiful this photography is. But look beyond and see how magnificent and glorious our world is." https://journals.worldnomads.com/jihyunpark/photos/35545/Ghana/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel Ghana jihyunpark https://journals.worldnomads.com/jihyunpark/photos/35545/Ghana/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/jihyunpark/photos/35545/Ghana/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Tue, 13 Nov 2012 16:04:55 GMT 0
