Love is all that matters so follow your bliss and shoot straight from your heart.  Remember, if you follow all the rules you'll miss all the fun.

Every shoot is a rehearsal for a masterpiece that may last longer than memory.  Each time you shoot, do it like it's the last.  Don't mind if you make crappy shots - just don't overly repeat it and be better next time.

 

Philosophical underpinnings of my photography or what guides me in transforming ordinary scenes in my world into lasting beautiful memories...

Substantial comments weigh heavier than mere likes.  Be generous with your honest thoughts - not necessarily compliments - even with your own work.  Balance between cutthroat criticism and appreciative inquiry.   Continuosly learn and unlearn.  And take a break when you have to.

Life is a laboratory.  Step outside your comfort zone and keep exploring.  Experiment.  Take risk.  Don't tame yourself to be ordinary or to be just like anybody else.  Be wild.  Be the XperlynMENTALIST YOU.
