Time

There is no such thing as time. It is nonexistant. The notion of it only burdens us. If we could only be free of it, we would be freer to hear what our souls have to say to us.

Focus and recompose

I am not talking about photography right now, but life. A woman's work is never done, but she must take pause and listen, listen to the inner depth of her soul while she can hear it. In short order, day turns to dawn and the desire to rest the mind whether one likes it or not may set in. In the rest I so frequently rebel against I know a precious gem awaits.

Color and texture

Strange kind of fall colors. I love it when the vines turn this bright red color! Playing with camera in the creative mode trying to capture color and texture! I did it! Tradition would have you create a much more shallow depth of field but I chose a grainy effect with a high ISO at 800 and created textures through out.

Life

Life can be hectic, but beauty is always serene to me. On the other hand, it can be stimulating. This must be why I like photography. I seek beauty in my photography and other things as well. Sometimes you just want to make somebody do something, preferably creative. TAKE ACTION!

I am venturing into more creative waters!

Fighting spirit of a woman

Women are awesome. I have a trail in my neighborhood that I frequent along with many others. I have noticed a woman who is quite elderly who seems to be using this trail with the help of another younger woman to rehabilitate herself. While this woman doesn't always display the grace of others during her walk, her spirit surpasses many half her age. Through the sounds of age and belabored breath, she walks. It amazes me. I shake myself off, realizing how much I have to be grateful for.
