These are wonderful photos!<BR/><BR/>I think the biggest passion that has surprised me was when I started painting in 2003, how relaxing it was and how I could get lost in it for hours, literally. And since then how all of my creative doors continue to grow and expand. <BR/><BR/>It is amazing how much can change almost without noticing as time goes by.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673385828370522173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-70217887607997042052009-01-03T21:59:00.000-06:002009-01-03T21:59:00.000-06:00Chris - funny where inspiration can flow from.

Dorothea Lange, when asked what camera she uses, said that she used anything that was handy -- a disposable, a P&S, a SLR. Just shows that you have to basically have an 'eye' and the rest will come.Charhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03851293154388793520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-59916553173807212292009-01-03T18:51:00.000-06:002009-01-03T18:51:00.000-06:00even if they are not technically perfect, they are...even if they are not technically perfect, they are still quite beautiful, Char.<BR/><BR/>i like what you have written, too. i love the word "rekindle".<BR/><BR/>i would definitely say photography has been ignited in me as well. all it took was my little tiny Canon PowerShot, and that was enough. now i can't get enough of it! it made a monster out of me. :)georgia b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15482885077943093475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-24501878948318149792009-01-03T18:42:00.000-06:002009-01-03T18:42:00.000-06:00I think it was in your genetics....

I'll find some old equipment of mine and get that heady rush of excitement, and I'm off and running to take pix again. I think I need it from time to time to get things moving creatively again. Sometimes I get lazy and stagnate, but photography always inspires me to do more (and in other areas, too).Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08875843561389199651noreply@blogger.com
