035 - How to achieve perfection in your photography

Lynford Morton September 1, 2015

How do you create the perfect photograph?

The question recently came up during a discussion with a client about his camera club and their photo contests. 

"What kinds of subjects do you all shoot," I asked?

"Mostly landscapes," he replied. "but the members are obsessed with being perfect." 

Inside I scoffed. What is a perfect photo? I've seen too many so-called perfect photos that bored me. They were technically perfect but had no life.

For me the perfect image is about more than just pixels.
 
I have expanded the perfect paradigm to mean the balance of three ideals. I call it the perfection triangle.
