Beyond the obvious: Why are there so many bad photographers?
http://paulindigo.blogspot.com/2015/07/why-are-there-so-many-bad-photographers.html
This blog is about Paul Indigo's views on life and photography. Sunday, July 19, 2015. Why are there so many bad photographers? Browsing social photography websites like Flickr and 500px is a frustrating experience. Overall the quality of photography is horrible. Home truths. Straight from the horse's mouth. People that receive a lot of votes/likes/favs are either good photographers or just good at playing the social game. Sadly, under all the manipulation there's often a good image. But no, the phot...

Beyond the obvious: An artist's passion
http://paulindigo.blogspot.com/2015/07/an-artists-passion.html
This blog is about Paul Indigo's views on life and photography. Sunday, July 05, 2015. Technique can be learnt but there are two other vital ingredients in an artist's makeup that you're born with, one of which is easily lost along long hard road of life. Flemish artist Willem Vermandere. Creativity is something we all have in us. Some people are born more creative than others. There's a range but how creative we actually are depends on the third ingredient and that's passion. Posted by Paul Indigo.

Beyond the obvious: Inspirational National Geographic photographers on photography
http://paulindigo.blogspot.com/2015/03/inspirational-national-geographic.html
This blog is about Paul Indigo's views on life and photography. Sunday, March 15, 2015. Inspirational National Geographic photographers on photography. What does it take to make the gold standard images we see in National Geographic magazine and what type of photographer does it take to get the job done? Since I was a kid, curled up on the sofa, with a copy of National Geographic, I've admired the beautiful, informative images on the pages of my favourite magazine. Posted by Paul Indigo. To start a conve...

Beyond the obvious: July 2014
http://paulindigo.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
This blog is about Paul Indigo's views on life and photography. Sunday, July 20, 2014. Daily I see so many images that have been ruined by heavy handed manipulation. The thing that really makes me sad is when I see a great image, lots of emotion, good light and a powerful composition that has been destroyed by poor editing. Great images are just like calamari. If you overcook them, they become very tough to get through and unpalatable. My plea: respect your pixels. Posted by Paul Indigo. He eloquently ex...

This blog is about Paul Indigo's views on life and photography. Friday, December 19, 2014. Art in glass photo story. In 2014 one of my highlights was photographing a glass blowing session, together with my wife and fellow photographer Magda, at Marcel Vlamynck's Art in Glass studio. In Brugge, Belgium. The famous Flemish actor and photogenic artist, Luk D'Heu, a keen glassblower himself, was also there adding his good humoured comments to the ambiance. Master glass artist Marcel Vlamynck clearly enjoys h...
