Photography and the future...

The future of art... be it music, theater, video, film, photography, etc... depends a lot on the future generation to help keep it alive and hopefully evolve and grow.

In a time where we as a nation seem to not value what the Arts bring to humanity and society, I find it refreshing to see young people take to this medium of photography.

For some it will become a passion.  Others, perhaps (and if they are fortunate) may make a living from it.

Seeing a young person getting their first "serious camera", beyond the cellphone or point & shoot camera, with the excitement and anxiousness to start being creative, gives me hope that the future may not be as dull and grey as it has become.
