The image above reminds me of how incredible a life of photography has been for me. This image may not resonate with you, and that is fine, the point is…… \u00a0it resonated for me. Photography is a craft, but it is much more than that, it is a life. \u00a0You have all been where I was when I looked down and saw this rope, the boats bow and the reflection in the water. \u00a0I was stunned by the simplicity and the poetry of the lines and the textue and that is it!!! \u00a0For me, \u00a0photography is about all those things, line, form, texture, color and composition, it’s alive.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Photography will only speak to you when you speak to it! \u00a0Live it, breathe it, and embrace it! \u00a0The rewards are unfathonable! \u00a0Enjoy your journey!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Blessings,<\/p>\n
