This is intended to be a space to post my photography. This will be a space for my more artsy photos, somewhere to save and share images that I enjoy.
I have often enjoyed taking pictures, especially in recent years. Now that I have my own SRL camera I have begun taking photos even more. For me photography is wonderful because it can capture small glimpses of life. Moments, memories, and emotions are often held in suspense as a camera clicks. Photography also has the capacity to capture extraordinary sights to be remembered and shared. An artist can use a photo to show something in a new way, encouraging viewers to look at the people, places, and objects within our lives differently.
I find that in my photography I am often looking more closely at the world around me. I enjoy taking pictures very close up, making simple things more beautiful by highlighting the colors and textures. Most often my photos are of flowers and landscapes, but I have dabbled in plenty of other things. I also enjoy taking pictures that center around a theme, tell a story, or give insight into a way of life. Each post within the blog will have a collection of photographs that all have a commonality. They will likely continue to vary and pictures will be new and old. Some of the photographs will also be made into collages. My goal though, is just to share some pretty pictures so that more people can enjoy them. To show that beauty can be found in many places, and often the smallest and most simple of things hold great beauty.
