Out and About
Like many photographers I enjoy looking for interesting compositions in wooded areas. Sometimes I find them in locations I’d not expected. Here are three which I made on Thanksgiving Day near our daughter’s home in SW Virginia, while walking off the food I’d just consumed.
Photographs permanently record what we see, and later form the basis for special memories related to the moment we clicked the shutter.
Even with extreme cold, this single Pansy bloom made me smile and marvel at it’s hearty nature. It’s an example of how one can overcome challenges in life. And then, here’s a rather simple photo below that inspired me when I saw the composition. as the sun peeked over the roof of our home early the other morning.
I often take my camera with me when I walk to get the morning newspaper. Walking up the driveway back to the house I saw this “golden” scene. I’d just experienced a minor challenge that poked its ugly head in my mind. When I downloaded the image on my laptop, I realized how truly blessed I was on this day … overall. Sometimes we can be inspired in ways unexpected. I’m thankful for that.
