Creativity is a muscle...

In this interview I speak with Ken Lee from ArtofSeeing.com. Ken has a unique perspective when it comes to creativity and “seeing”. He regularly speaks on the topic, and it's facinating to hear him speak about some fundamental ways you can choose to “see” that will dramatically change your photography. Ken says creativity is a “muscle”, that can be strengthened.

About Ken Lee (In his own words…)

I make pictures. All kinds of pictures but mostly nature and travel pictures. I'm passionate about making images but also the creative process that produces them. I've learned some key lessons on my journey as a photographer. Among the most important are that Seeing is a skill and Creativity is a muscle. The Photographer's Eye is something anyone can learn.

I also enjoy helping others grow as photographers. My favorite way of doing this is to take small groups of people to amazing places and working on both the craft and creative aspects of image making together. I call it a Whole Brain approach to photography.

You don't have to go to amazing places to learn to See, but it's more fun that way ;-).
