she said with contempt.

Well then smarty pants, she continued, ' you go there and bring me your vision and what's that you call techinque '.

I kept quiet. My eyes failing to meet hers.

Now set them dials on this here camera. I don't have time for such things.

I want to follow my dreams, she said. A*hole! He should walk more and talk less!

What's that you say Fahim?

' one needs to be creative '? Missed it the last time around, did you?

' You are getting stale '? I know that. You went stale ages ago!

' you need to make resolutions '? To photograph? Are you for real?

Listen, Mr. Hotshot. I shall tell you something...

All you need is a heart. And eyes, if you want to use a camera.

A heart to feel, first and foremost. To listen and understand the wind.
Eyes to believe what you hear.

You have them, don't you?

' One has to master the technique ' !

No, Fahim. Not the Camera or Photographic technique.

That's why I bought this all auto camera. They call it point and shoot. Obviously!

Fahim, you have got it all wrong.

Here, let me explain to you, very slowly.

One has to know about that ' rock '. One has to feel its importance. Feel it like those
to whom it has importance. To whom it is sacred, and why. Let the winds tell you that. Hear it.

Next, these ' scraps ' of paper and cloth. These ' writings ' on them. Your heart must understand what they mean. Understand why they are there. Feel Fahim; Feel, with your heart.

You shall then understand, what you need to photograph. And how.

You shall then stand where I stood to take this photograph... I could not have stood anywhere else!
My heart would not have allowed me to.

Aperture, speed, iso...what are you talking about Fahim! I just pointed and shot.
Point and shoot.

This may well be the best message for the new year. We should all pay attention to it.
You have a great heart, my friend. Also good eyes if you ask me.

Cheers,
