A.N. — Today's subject went from photographing Harry's de-boned arm yesterday to getting petrified today. Let's concentrate, instead, on another aspect of this muggleborn. There's one more "big" name coming up on the 11th before a rather barren stretch starts.
312. Colin Creevey
Watching the world through a camera lens was easier for Colin. Focusing on the make-up of a shot made ignoring the elements outside the frame more manageable.
Hogwarts was a fascinating place, tainted only by the people in it. Colin could spend the rest of his life photographing the castle and not uncover all its secrets or vistas. If only his works were just landscapes and still lifes, with the biased professors and prejudiced students removed.
But his artist's eye was cursed to capture the entire picture, beautiful along with the ugly. It was Colin's task to balance the composition.
