Future Photography

[coasty]

When I bought my first SLR in about 1976? A practica I seem to remember the advances in lense and light metering at the time lead to all sorts of discussions in the Amateur photograher mag at the time that would all the skill go out of taking photos.
I think that nothing has changed between then and now. Yes cameras are technologically more advanced and can deliver a well exposed and better focussed photo with more efficiency.
However My friend Dog has hit the nail on the head the secret of good photography is composition and having an eye for a picture. Without those you are meerly recording a photographic record. You are not creating a photograph.

This statement, and Doug`s post, has really made me sit back and think about my own photography.... thanks to both of you
