I'm checking in for my monthly update of this, that and nothing much. My camera continues to sit idle while I write and write and write some more. Instead of taking snapshots with a camera I've chosen to create snapshots of life with words, at least for now.
Do I miss taking photos? Yes.
I took this lonely tree photo on February 3, 2012 & it's pretty much SOOC
Will I pick up my camera and begin snapping shots the way I have for the last few years? Not for the foreseeable future.
Such a Valentine photo! A gathering of an old book, Sans Famille written in French, a bit of ribbon roses on lace, and my mother's charming little heart bracelet. I like the way the heart caught the light.
Why? Because I've discovered that if I spread myself too thin nothing gets accomplished. There's not enough time in the day to be a photographer, an editor of photos, a writer, a researcher, a reader, a commenter, Mimi to a grandson, and still do all the things that need to be done on a daily basis.
This photo just makes me smile, the light shining through the petals gives it a softness and yep, this is another SOOC photo from February 2012
In the wee hours of a sleepless night I need a quiet occupation, so I thought I'd catch up with my favorite blogs and write a bit of a post. I sincerely wish all a lovely life every day.
I am doing some of the same. Catching up on reading my favorite blogs - too much going on to write or take photos. :) Happy February.
ReplyDeleteNope...can't do it all. Follow where your creative heart takes you. The photos can wait...but it sounds like the words cannot. :)
ReplyDeleteYou have to do the things you love best. Like you, I have so many interests, and which should come first? I juggle them all from day to day, just like you.
ReplyDeleteThere certainly aren't enough hours in the day to all that we desire, so it's good to choose just a few of the things we love to do the most.
ReplyDeleteThe heart bracelet is ever so beautiful, especially the way you have photograhed it.
