Good friends!

I was chatting to a close friend the other day about this and that, but in particular the event with my camera, (the one I was carrying when I fell the other day!), and the loss of the images that I could have taken of the geese flying past my head. Her perspective was different.

As a photographer, it's a natural instinct to reach for my camera when I see an event or scene around me that excites and motivates me want to produce and image for my collection. In doing so, we tend not to sit back and just enjoy the moment that unfolds in front of us. Although a large part of me rues the photographic part, I was very fortunate to witness a beautiful site before me, and did enjoy it.

Like this morning. The blood red sunrise over a mist shrouded Clifton Reynes was just beautiful to witness. I still wish that I'd had my camera with me, I don't think that'll ever change, but she was right, sometimes we need a bit of "me time" just to take in the beauty that surrounds us.
