I am interested in how our senses perceive reality before our unconscious interpretation clouds the subjective experience. Can photographs recreate the truth, or manage to depict and clarify the subjective interpretation?

An underlying goal of photography is to make you see the world the way the photographer does.
I am more concerned with how I can use photography to show myself how I see the world.
