Your own perspective

I was facilitating a discussion of members' work at the Fountain Hills Photo Club, and made this point about critique and personal style, "understanding how other people see your work is important to helping you better communicate whatever it is you want to say. This does not mean that you are changing your style to conform to someone else's point of view. You are simply understanding how people perceive the photographed image so that you can harness it to show your point of view of beauty or humanity."

And then my friend Stacee posted this today from Oscar Wilde:

"Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken”

Why? The little voice said, "this is cool light, find an image."
