Sometimes you have to make yourself stop and smell the flowers. As I did this morning. It’s time to get back to my happy place. For far too long that place has been pushed out of sight. This morning was overcast, my favorite light to photograph flowers. And it was time to stop and smell the flowers.
Would I remember how to see? Could I make an image worthy of showing? Well, all of you can be the judges.
It felt good to be in my happy place again, with all of my knowledge coming right back into focus (pun intended). Camera settings, tripod level and angle, finding the story in my flowers all right where I left them and waiting for my return. Seeing the world as I once did on an almost daily basis, I miss that world.
Too much distraction the last few years and 2020 has been even more of a distraction. Time to tune the “real world” out and focus on “my world”.
Remember to take time to stop and smell the flowers!
