PHOTOGRAPHY
An excerpt from an interview with Lewis Blackwell for the book
¡°Photowisdom¡±, 2009:

¡°I believe that aesthetics is of a higher order than technique, but technique
must be mastered first and relegated into the subconscious so that the
photographer can concentrate on seeing. Digital photography has liberated
me from many of the constraints of traditional photography, but it also
encourages a less disciplined approach. So when I switched to digital, I
stopped using the motor drive and decided to be very selective about when I
pressed the shutter. I do not use remote cameras, preferring to rely on hand-
eye coordination when taking pictures. The moment it all becomes too
technical and gadget-driven, the artistry is diminished.¡±
? Shoots on a Canon EOS-1Ds MkIII & use a range of lenses like
  the fisheye, 50mm to 500mm lenses.

? Uses a mixture of flash & ambient light in the field, & mainly
  uses his Speedlight flashguns to fill in shadows or bring out
  highlights in the eye.

? Pioneered the digital technique of morphing images into each
  other.

? Employs the use of long exposure to sharply capture the
  stationary elements of images while blurring, smearing, or
  obscuring the moving elements.

? Besides aesthetics, he manages to capture pivotal moments
  of the animals & the emotions from the natives or people.
