Everybody is a Photographer

This man is nuts. Perhaps is is not so obvious for our mainland tourists to realize the dangers of large surf. All it would take is for a few tons of water to smash this man into the razor-sharp lava, for him to understand that he is standing too close to the waves.

While I was on Oahu recently I realized how photography had changed so quickly during the past 5 years. Everybody jumped out of their rental car, or tour bus with some sort of imaging device. Cell phones, pocket cameras, 35mm cameras, video cameras, disposable cameras, iPhones….  I was amazed. Age didn’t matter, either. Even the older folks were holding their cameras out toward the waves for a quick snapshot.

Where do all of these images go? This is the big question? What does the future hold for photographic printing? Scrapbooks? How will we view these images? …Just a few things that I am pondering these days.
