The poetry of the
earth is never dead. ~John Keats
The Magic of the Cities.
Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

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.
