inspiration

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

  3. I'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
