iNSiGHT: the eye behind the lens

Posted by Jessica Pettyjohn on

The Photography of MJ Schaer

 

INSIGHT: the capacity to gain an intuitive understanding through acute observation, deduction and perception of a subject with an inner sight or mental vision.

“As an outdoor photographer, my aspirations for “iNSiGHT”  comes from the multitude of subjects and objects I encounter in my connection and passion for the great outdoors. With acute observation and perception, taking note of small details, one is enabled to visualize, capture and create a visual impact from these outdoor subjects, thus creating the adventure and goal of this photographic series.”
