Talking Photos – Introduction
Talking Photo’s a general discussion forum for the photographer who wants to sell their work and perhaps to go onto to fame and fortune as a fine art photographer. This discussion group is simply about my experiences and wanting to share some of those to photographers out there. Much of what I write about will be based on my own experiences, my own opinions and fundamentally my own belief in my work.
I hav been shooting for nearly 20 years. In that time I have produced a series of bautiful images. Images that will always mean something to me and in turn something for you, the visitor to this site, to interpret in your own meaningful way.
I am not a landscape, portrait, nude, still life, etc. photographer. Perhaps to my detriment, I am a generalist (I’d love to use the word universalist, but that is way too excessive a description). I shoot emotionally – to use a cliche – I shoot from from the hip. I have a few other other sites – www.davidepsteinphotography.com, www.reflectionsofone.com and www.davidepstein.co.za. All serve different purposes in my life. The idea behind www.dnephoto.co.za started 10 years ago when I produced a catalogue (download here) of predominantly my own black & white prints. I asked a few guest photographers to contribute their work. I may do that with this site. Right now my idea is to have a poster site, work with some designers and bring out the maximum of some images at affordable prices (which was the original intent of the catalogue)
