Weekly Poll: Take Pictures or Make Pictures

[Laurence]

Takes photos for me.

But I'm not going with the context of making means "arranging" as in product photgraphy. To me, "taking" is more like "snapshot". "Making" means really thinking about what you want, how to get there, and adjusting as necessary to get the desired results.

I suppose I do a little bit of both. But I must say, nothing gives me more satisfaction than when I am pleased with a shot that came straight from the camera with no post-edits.

[tangitude]

I fall into the "take" camp at the moment, mostly because I haven't started to play with making yet. I have some ideas that I want to try once I get my first dSLR, things that aren't really possible with my point and shoot at the moment. So until then, I'm taking, hoping to work my way toward making.
