In this era of instant gratification, photography sometimes seems caught in a contradiction. Today, I propose we resist! \ud83d\ude33 We go out into nature to breathe, observe, and feel a place... but once the camera is in hand, many of us start rushing around again. We need to frame quickly, produce quickly, check quickly, publish quickly. The gaze becomes hurried. So does the gesture.<\/strong> \ud83d\ude21<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n
