For my last post, I decided to write my feelings about the blog. The blog was a hassle to do, but a much worth hassle. Blogging about my progress and my projects was uninteresting, and the fact that the only other persons blog i had was biancas to look at, watching other peoples progress and their influences did not go over to well. However, the blog influenced how I thought and percieved photography.
At first I blogged about the few photographers i knew, or had seen in a magazine etc. Once that ran dry I had to actively look for photographers to blog about. In doing that, I was able to see the extreme variety of works being done. It showed me how my traditional thought of photography was limiting my ability to even think in the most creative way. That is why I blogged about all the artists who were doing stuff that just amazed me. This blog forced me to look outside of what I know and absorb all types of influences that I would have never found on my own. To be able to see some of the things that are possible when it comes to photography really pushes what I try to think of. All the artists I found and looked at made me more interested in photography and expanded my mind on what photography really encompasses. This blog was a chore well worth doing.
