I don't mean the song by The Who, though it is a very good later days Who song. I really mean 'Who are you?' How would you describe yourself in as few words as possible? How might you be described after you'd died?

Is It a Photograph or Is It Art?

Reblogged from Nature Photography:

I have been reading some posts by photographers who are really into the idea that their images are pure and pristine because they take great pains to get all the settings right in the camera so they do little or no post processing.

Then our friend, beekeeper Andrew Hubbard, went there for a day out on sunny Bank Holiday Monday and told us about a wonderful pub.

When I was a young boy, I was always tripping. Didn't matter what I was walking on or what kind of shoes I had on, or no shoes. If I walked more than ten steps, I was going to trip. I had bruised knees, torn jeans (my wise old grandmother despised torn jeans), bloody elbows and hands....
