Summertime II

Zen and the Art of Photography

Wayne Rowe California State Polytechnic University, Pomona.

Driven by a passion for photography and a fascination with the Zen Buddhist

philosophy,

the author conceptually and experientially examines the relationship

between Zen Buddhism and the art of photography.

Among the subjects discussed:

What is the relationship between haiku and photography?

What is the relationship between the mind of the photographer while creating a photograph and the Zen concept of the Empty Mind?

What role does intuition and feeling play in photography?

In Zen?

Through examination of these concepts and relationships,

the author explains the heightened awareness, joy,

and enlightenment he has experienced through photography

and suggests ways that others may share in

the creative process.
