what happened!

what is real and what is not. what is true and what is not. these are two permanent questions i have in mind. Today i saw something which was hard for me to beleave. I saw some Tibetians protesting for their right and freedom. All of a sudden polices comes and start talking to them and with in a span of 15 mins they started beating them up. They were dragging them all over, putting them into buses. They did not cared who is it girls, guys, women. they were just pushing them and dragging them. When some of them actually said leave us we will go home. But even then they did not let them go.
I failed to understand what was it? when everything could have been sorted out calmly then why it all happened. May be because some people wanted to make it big. May be because some big people wanted it look attractive and appealing to the audience. I do not know.
But yes! this was my first such experience and i was thrilled by what all happen. I also understood the importance of a photographer. For good or for bad, i don't know but yes photographers do play a very important role.

THE LEARNING PROCESS

We keep learning things till the time we don't die. Sometimes we want to learn and sometimes they are forced but we do learn. Photography is something which I do want to learn. I have given my self this time span of a year in which I want to collect all the elements. which I can use to develop my own style in photography. I came to an institute to learn because I knew that if I approach different people for different styles myself, maybe it'll take ages to reach there. But an institute can give me this chance to meet people from this industry with different vision and different style.Which makes it easier for me to develop my own sense of photography.
Initially as the course started it went above my expectations. I was very happy with the kind of teaching environment we had. But as few months passed everything became unorganized and undisciplined. And there just one prospective we could follow or we were opened to. It looks as if one style ruling our mind. I learnt a lot in this institute,maybe more than what i thought of. But now is the time i need a change a big change. Because i feel stuck now, I feel i am not growing anymore. Nobody is talking about creativity , infect i am not learning anything new now.
so I am waiting for institute to bring us back to the class. So that we can learn more and develop our styles.
