I have been told time and time again that I live my life like I'm skipping through the daisies. And while this this is probably true, no patch of daises has ever been as wonderful as the one I just skipped through. I just returned from four days in Monterey, California and this dreamer has seen few other places on this earth quite as inspiring. My camera never left my hands during the short trip as I vowed not to miss a thing. I grasped onto the experience with all my will and drank it in fully.
The shutter would click time and time again with each image acting like sun infused vitamin D, bringing summer light into what had previously paled over the course of winter. This slice of heaven contained an abundance of animal life that is too often missing from our everyday landscape. The balance of life and landscape created endless opportunity and challenge for photographic perfection. None of this is taken for granted though. Over the past few years, I have seen some cherished friends fall ill and become homebound. I'm always thinking of you as I skip along and point my camera. Grab my hand and come see the places we'll go. NOTE...uploading on here takes forever...whats not in here, I overflowed onto facebook.
