I am so excited to finally futher my knowledge about photography. I want to acknowlege that I have been blessed with the most supporting Friends and Family a person could ask for. I have literally wondered through this life going " what am I here for" "what am I suppose to be doing and on and on." I have dabbled in many arts and crafts and lose interest after a while...when I reflect back I to the very 1st digital Camera I owned (the kind that you had to put a cd in) I fell in love with the ease of taking pictures and being able to share them instantly. I love instant results in just about any project that I take on. Over the years I have continued to enjoy taking pictures and sharing, thus I am persuing my digital picture passion.
As I continue to blog on
Wishcasting Wednesdays with Jamie I have met some awsome artists of all sorts. I was finally able to realize that photography is also an art, and one has to have an eye for it.
Ginnys comments on wanting to learn more but not sure which direction to go so resenated with me. After emailing several times back and forth, she encouraged me to take this class and we decided we take this path together if it was meant to be. Turns out it was to be.
Kat has been awsome about getting me set up for this part of my journey. We are to create our photo Journal online and write about a image that speaks to us. I had taken this picture back in January up around the Kerrville Texas area. It captures so very much of my life. Storms that I have been through and the Calm waters of my life now. The roots remind me of endurning strength to carry on and be strong in lifes storms. I had more comments on this piture than the blog it's self. That was the moment I realized that I wanted to learn and do more with my picture taking passion.
I encourge you to visit
Kats blog and see if the classes are for you as well.
What an incredibly strong picture. It is good to have roots which ground you and as well as eyes which help you to see all the wonderful possibilities that the world has to offer. I think this is going to be a fun journey of learning and sharing.
ReplyDeleteThat is an incredible picture -- especially the perspective that you took it from -- the roots are reaching out to the deep, still waters for grounding, sustenance, enrichment? Anyway, it's very lovely and like Ginny, I look forward to sharing this journey with you.
ReplyDeleteI really like this root. Very interesting!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Your photo of the gnarled wood and water is very thought provoking, powerful elemental energy there. I hadn't thought of the "instant" part of this art form, but yes! And, I like that too. We'll be out, I'll have taken some photos, and I'll spend a good amount of the rest of the day just *waiting* to get home and "unwrap" the shots I took -- it's so exciting to see them and share them right away. Glad you are in the class!
ReplyDeleteRosemary, I'm so happy to have you on this journey! I love how you describe this picture. Images like this, which come from the heart, and speak to more than just a pretty picture, are what I strive for. I'm glad to be able to share this journey with you, and I'm glad you have a friend along with you. I look forward to seeing where you go!
ReplyDeleteDisregard my Flickr comment...the linked worked this time.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great pic and pair with your words it's even more so. Glad to be in Kat's class with you!
