It's one of the more powerful of our main senses (along with hearing, taste, touch, etc). With our senses, we experience so much of the world around us, from the time we are tiny, little human beings...still helpless and dependent on our parents for nearly everything. Once our eyes start to focus on our surroundings, we have a different "relationship" to it...more "personal"...more "powerful"....more "profound". <BR/><BR/>Photographs, because we can "arrange" them to create the effect/final result we are aiming for....can really impact our mental/emotional state of being. They can bring great joy, or great sorrow. Just look into the face of a grandmother, when you present her with an 8x10 of her entire family. You will see an expression of such joy and gratitude, that there are no words to accurately describe it... <BR/><BR/>Your work is especially fun, because you are so open to trying something new and different...and because I think you genuinely ENJOY taking that picture...whether it is a piece of fruit, or a shadow on the wall. <BR/><BR/>You are an artist, and one with a true "gift".

It reminds me of the wooden ones we had while I was growing up, unlike the plastic ones available now (which I have LOL)<BR/><BR/>What is a mood changing pic for me - well you have seen my blog so I think you can probably guess. Horses, a good horse picture or any animal for that matter. I suffer from chronic depression (Believe me I didnt believe in all that depression stuff til I found myself in the position) and I find that to drag myself out to the barn is the hardest part of my day, once I am out there especially with my camera I am in my element. When we have foals (we only have one due this year but had 7 two years ago), I can sit out in the field for hours watching them and trying to capture their personalities and few and far between periods of exuberance which only last for a minute or two at a time. I love to watch their interaction. Horses have personalities the same as people do I just wish I could convey that to more people, maybe there wouldnt be so much animal abuse in the world today.<BR/><BR/>Okay off my soap box, but you did ask LOL.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for visiting, I enjoy reading your blog and seeing your shots too.<BR/><BR/>LoriLori Schmidt (LoriProPhoto)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01786227217137143996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-27328685633809241742007-02-28T07:49:00.000-05:002007-02-28T07:49:00.000-05:00Wow, you've been taking some great pics lately!

I awoke that first morning to subdued grey light coming through the blinds. I felt a huge surge of regret as the light seemed just like England!!
