I saw the first half of a video on Annie Liebovitz today. I must say, I was inspired. I can identify in myself aspects of her drive to make pictures, but for most of my life I've been afraid to unleash them - to my photographic detriment.
While I disagree with her politics and her social POV (there was a time I would have heartily agreed, but God has had other plans for me), I must admit I'm somewhat (envious? awed? what's the right word?) of her success as an image maker. It's only been in the past few years that I've even begun to let my dreams out of the bag and take a few tentative steps into the light.
That said, I do find the few steps I've been able to take to be immensely rewarding. And yet with each step comes a new challenge.
