The Untouchable Elite :)

The Untouchable Elite :)

I had reason to smile when I called this post "The Untouchable Elite," and maybe that sounds too grandiose, but life shows that's true when it comes to photographers, or simply people like you and me who hold a camera in their hands.

Yes, photographers are forgiven a lot, because what might be considered idleness in other occupations is, for a photographer, work.

Imagine a steelworker standing next to a forge of molten metal, and instead of his regular duties, he stands for hours admiring the molten metal as it flows from the forge into an overflowing mold. The metal begins to spill across the floor, and he watches with curiosity.

Or an engineer standing over a drawing board, instead of working on a drawing, watches a pesky fly hovering above it. I'm sure the head of the design department will reprimand him and remind him of the deadlines stipulated in the design services contract.

And a photographer, in his spare time from his main occupation, can practice both steelmaking and design.

With a camera in hand, time flies. I've tested it many times, and before you can take a hundred photos, a couple of hours slip away, but there's no sense of wasted time.

The object of such observations, which swallow up time without judgment, can be anything: insects, animals, people, landscapes, or, as in this case, ripples on the surface of a lake, in which the multicolored reflections of pedal boats pulled onto the shore are visible.

No one's pushing you, you choose what you watch and how much time you spend on it. Isn't that the elite? The untouchable elite!

Zoom in on a photo for a closer view.

More to come!

Enjoy viewing the photos and reading the article!

Have a blessed day!
