Why two photographers never see the same scene: myth of objectivity

from The Perceptive Photographer

In this episode of The Perceptive Photographer, I explore why two photographers never see the same scene. Photography isn’t objective; it’s shaped by perception, experience, emotion, and intent. Every choice such as where we stand, what we include, and when we press the shutter reflects how we see the world. Rather than searching for the “right” photograph, this episode encourages photographers to understand their own visual awareness. By paying attention to what draws our attention and why, we can create more personal, intentional images that reflect our unique way of seeing.
