About me
Im Robert. Just simply Robert.

Hm..... People asked me to write some more about me. Now here it comes, but do not expect the story of the fathers camera which i got and start my passion for photography.

Just at one day i purchased a camera to start a hobby which took me a way from typical habits my job in foreign countries comes along with. So it starts and did grow. Analogue and digital now and still it is a lot of fun!
Since that time i do not sleep long and stopped watching TV, i go places before i never would have gone. I look at details before i never saw. Some of the beauties in life are still to discover yet. I meet people i would have never meet before! I love what i am doing and i am doing it with my heart and soul! I like to get close! I like people close to me so it is better to feel what they feel which makes me understanding! And i am learning, not only about photography but for life!

What more i can write? Not much! Just look at my pictures! The pictures from simply Robert!

About me
Photography is a very important part of my space.
It is to discover, it is to capture giving flow to what the heart feels and sees in a certain moment, it is being in the street, experiencing, understanding, learning and, essentially, practicing the freedom of being, of living, of thinking

1.一幅好照片要有一个主题。一幅好的照片，可以讲出一个故事，可以交流一种思想，或表达一种感情。在任何情况下，一张好照片里所表现的人或事物不应该仅只对你个人来说是有意义的；它应当对于任何地方的任何人都同样是很有意义的。我们把这一人人都有意义的原则称之为“具有普遍性”。
2.一幅好的照片总是把观众的视线吸引到能够表现主题最重要的事物上面。我把这一原则叫做“突出重点”。
3.一幅好的照片要“简洁明了”。它只摄取那些对表现主题至关重要的东西，而排除或压缩其他对主题起分散作用的东西。
只要注意了这三条原则，你就会发现，你不久就能用一种新的眼光去观看、分析和评价一幅美丽的照片了。而更重要的是，你将会开始用一种新的标准、新的方式去观察你周围的世界，从而用新目光来抓取你的镜头了。

摘自:86年第一版《纽摄》上册，P21-22.

哇啊~~鹹蛋西施哈。光用的有些平，以后记住-----多尝试高位侧光则更有韵味些哈，谢谢上片！。

这个就是生活！。属于大众的生活，你最熟悉最有感情的，识得如何来表现的，拍这些才有可能出好片！，好过游山玩水，走马观花，嚯嚯~无需解释，都明白的。轮廓光用得蛮提神的，拍摄时机还有改善的空间。 本帖最后由 亚瑟李 于 2012-10-15 18:29 编辑
