About a year ago, I noticed a picture that a Facebook friend of mine posted.
Now. I love photography. And taking a good photograph is something that I struggle with every time I click the button on my camera. I think you either "got it" or you don't when it comes to a camera.
The definition of "Raw Talent"
Webster defines raw talent as "powerfully impressive talent"
I agree.
Enter David Duke.
David is 55 years old. He lives in my hometown of Dothan, Alabama (one of the most talented cities in the country BTW)
He has carried around a camera all of his life, but has had no formal training.
Instinctively gifted is how I would describe him. He says he's lucky to get the shots he gets. I beg to differ. I'm pretty darn lucky, and I have never, ever been able to capture images like he can.
I love that his photography brings peace to his hectic life.
I love that this guy has a hobby that he loves and one that he will carry with him for the rest of his life.
David is Executive Director for the United Way 2-1-1, in the Wiregrass Area.
(Lower Alabama for those of you unfamiliar)
now. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the "Bug Photographer's" beautiful work!
"Powerfully Impressive"!
