PRO INSIGHT dime a dozen All good long term projects start with a good idea, i.e. a subject matter or visual concept that needs to be shared with your audience. Ideas may be a dime a dozen but good ones are rare and precious. However good ideas may not be born fully realized. Many are a result of accident or serendipity: occasions that cannot be repeated. The narrative may come together like time-lapse. You might have been at the right place at the right time or at a unique event that sparks an interest and you get to experience it over and over. Good ideas and good photographs can crop up anytime...anyplace. I used to travel to Japan on assignment every year and my camera got to see the country change before my very eyes. PicsArt Monthly |9
