When I first came across this photo, it was saying "Welcome, Come In and Visit" - I fell in love it with every aspect of this photo - Autumn (my favorite time of the year), the beautifully detailed arched fence, the leaf paved road ... and especially "The Light" ... If you look closely you can see someone walking on the path in the distance ... I wonder where they are headed? Is there is a lake that we cannot see? So many questions come to mind. What fence is welcoming you? Where would you like to go? What would you like to see? Could it be a new place you have never been to? Or explore a new area on a bicycle? Or taking a walk? Or by taking a long car ride? Happy Sunday, Friends ... Enjoy!

  2. Thanks so much, Sonja - I research what I am thinking of posting for a certain day, or a certain week - Sometimes it is just fun to pick a wonderful piece of art and talk about it - See what questions we can come up with - What peaks our curiosity ... Yes, I was going to keep this one for Whimsical Wednesdays, but I had to post it on a regular day, because I loved it so much!

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...

A Summer Photo Album ...

Picture Frame Friday ...

So, These are the benefits of having your own blog - Usually, On Fridays it is Poetry Friday but I wanted to change things up a bit. I thought I would write regarding a question I have been asked quite frequently these days. How do I decide the a photo is worth taking? Or how do I know that it will be a good shot? I came across this photograph (above) and thought this would be perfect to help me explain. Many times I have an imaginary frame in my mind of what I want my photo to look like. Off to the left a bit, off to the right, etc - I also tape the LCD display before I go out shooting. I learned this years ago, and it has really improved my work.  (It keeps me shooting - An average shoot on any given day is approximately 100 shots.)This way, I do not waste time checking photos. It forces you to save that work for when you return home. This way, you are not deleting pictures that may please you on the computer, but not in the camera. Hoping these tricks and tips help you,...
