Jared Polin Froano's Photo.com, and this is another daily fro for June 7, 2018.

The time now is 10, 14 p.m. It's between periods of the hockey game. This is episode

number 123, where I sit down sometime during the day, once or twice, or I haven't done three

times, to share what's on my mind with you and you can

share what's on your mind with me by calling or texting 2674546376. I was just sitting going

through Instagram and the thought went through my mind that I don't make photographs. I don't make pictures, I capture moments.

And I want to explain that. I want to dive into this a little bit.

Because I don't think it matters whether you do one or the other, or if you do both.

It's just that I'm drawn to capturing moments that are presented in front

of me, where I don't have much of a hand in what's happening in the capturing of the images

other than actually capturing what is presented. That's why I love photojournalistic type images.

My subjects are doing what they normally do, and I capture that.

And sure, sometimes I am in a situation where I'm like, hey, hold that, do that again, or

hold that, things like that.

But I just feel like capturing moments for me is the challenge.

And making photographs, literally making something out of nothing, to me isn't very interesting. I'm not into the fine

art of setting up a studio and a backdrop and having flowers fall from the sky as the petals go past

the girl's face. You know, I'm not a fan of that. Don't hold, don't hold that against me whatever I

just did. That was just some kind of

affectation. Didn't mean anything, all right? But I, I, I'm not a fan of that. That was me just

mocking it. And I'm not saying it's bad if you, if you do that type of stuff. I'm not saying

it's wrong, because there are photographers out there who build images. They make things out of nothing.
