22 Days of Gratitude - Day 13: Photography

Photography

About six years ago I became interested in photography.  I went on a photo shoot outing with the Redlands Camera Club with my good friend, Marty.  Marty loaned me (and later sold me) my first (and only} digital super-duper Canon 50D SLR with telephoto lens.  I was hooked.  

I have continued to go on various photo safaris with Marty, another good friend, Dave, and on my own.  I have taken my lens to Santa Fe, Arizona, Santa Barbara, Joshua Tree, several botanical parks, museums and art fairs and more.  I even took a digital camera to Italy last year and Michigan and more.  It is amazing what you see when you look at the world with an eye toward photographing it.

I have become more aware of light and color, the subtle changes in each at various times of day.  I love to capture random images, like those captured recently above.  I like architectural details of buildings.  Alleys intrigue.  And people...people just being people on the street.  

I have also occasionally shared my work in some local galleries and at a few local art shows.  To my amazement, I have actually sold some of my images to appreciative "patrons".  That is a very nice feeling of affirmation and pride.   

This is why I am so thankful to have discovered and pursued this fun hobby.  I try to take a camera everywhere, because, as any photographer type will tell you, you never know when you might snap!
