a recent conversation posed the question,
what do you do when you're needing inspiration?
my answer was
getting out in nature
today, it was a 30 minute walk on the trail
and I took my camera
so, if I were to revisit that original conversation,
the more complete answer would be
getting out in nature with my camera
life has been
T O O
hectic lately
time to slow down and take time to see
At least I can leave a comment on your blog, one of few lately. Your nature inspired photos are divine. I really like how you use your camera. It is true art behind the lens.
ReplyDeleteA walk outside in the beauty of the natural world always clears my head too. Love your pics:)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the camera and nature idea to spark inspiration, works every time for me, and your photos are fantastic, I also love your 'header' photograph, beautiful colours and texture...is it cloth or paper ? Good luck with the 'slowing down' part...I find the momentum in our lives has a mind of it's own and is often difficult to control. xx
ReplyDeleteOh I so agree. Nothing like a good walk in the fresh air to clear the head, blow away the cobwebs and refresh.....I just came back from one. xox

Happy November dear Kimmie

You are very right! Taking a bit of time in the midst of the chaos can help bring us back. So glad you found your peace and inspiration on a walk.

ReplyDeleteRemembering to get out and slow down and soak up the inspiration that nature gives so freely is a realy gift to oneself.
