Don’t Take an Easy Path不要走容易的路
Do care! Don’t take an easy path.
Many years ago I heard this tip from an amazing photographer Mecuro B Cotto. At that point, I only took up photography and was absorbing the information like a sponge...
This tip was one of those that changed my perception of art photography. From simple, primitive and dull portraits, I was slowly but surely moving toward something more complicated, deliberate and well-elaborate.
I was admiring his photo works and couldn’t imagine how difficult it was to create such photos. Since then, I haven’t been looking for easy ways, and I never take the easy path.
Putting a beautiful lady in a photo studio setting and taking a couple of photos with flashes is simple, fast and might even be beautiful. Yet, almost all photographers take this easy path and daily churn out millions of similar photos – photos that represent no interest to anyone...
A different story is inventing an interesting idea, finding a true-to-life and appropriate location, an appropriate model, clothing, outfits, thinking about poses, plot – all this is challenging and requires a lot of strength, time and money. Yet, believe me, it’s worth it.
This is also applicable to retouching. As I was searching for – to be more specific, creating my own recognizable retouching style, I spent numerous hours at the display studying Photoshop, plugins and the art of retouching.
一定要关心！不要走容易的路。
许多年前，我从一位出色的摄影师 Mecuro B Cotto 那里听到了这个建议。那时我只开始摄影，像海绵一样吸收信息……
这个技巧是改变我对艺术摄影看法的技巧之一。从简单、原始和沉闷的肖像画，我正在缓慢但坚定地走向更复杂、深思熟虑和精心制作的东西。
我很欣赏他的照片作品，无法想象创作这样的照片有多困难。从那时起，我就不再寻找容易的方法，也不再走容易的路。
将一位美丽的女士放在照相馆环境中并使用闪光灯拍摄几张照片简单、快速，甚至可能很美丽。然而，几乎所有摄影师都采取这种简单的方式，每天都会制作出数百万张类似的照片——这些照片对任何人来说都不感兴趣……
一个不同的故事是发明一个有趣的想法，找到一个真实的、合适的地点，一个合适的模特、服装、服装、思考姿势、情节——所有这些都是具有挑战性的，需要大量的力量、时间和金钱。然而，相信我，这是值得的。
这也适用于修饰。当我在寻找——更具体地说，创造我自己可识别的修饰风格时，我花了很多时间在显示器上研究 Photoshop、插件和修饰艺术。
