I think many of us are the types of photographers that seek a single image. Most of my photo outings are with a single frame mindset - capture the shot. That one perfect frame that captures the essence of a place or a pristine moment in time. I certainly fall squarely into that camp. If I were a musician, my goal would be to write the next great power ballad.
There is, however, another approach - a body of work. A set of images that stand together to tell a story. To continue the musical analogy, it’s a visual medley, a photo essay. And a collection of images can tell a richer story than just a single image.
