When we’re burned out from writing, we can photograph or draw, look at the world in a different way, and photographers could try writing what they see.

Here’s the beauty of a camera: you don’t have to come up with words for what you’re looking at… Maybe another angle is needed sometimes. When we’re burned out from writing, we can photograph or draw, look at the world in a different way, and photographers could try writing what they see.
