No matter how long I photograph, I always enjoy those moments of seeing the world around me anew. I think that discovering familiar places in new ways opens not just our eyes, but, more importantly, our minds. It’s almost akin to a moment of meditation that enables us to be in the present and escape the mundaneness of much of our lives.
This particular image came from a bit of this openness to new inputs…
It’s not that this is a superb photograph, as there are numerous flaws in the way I put this together. Despite its flaws, this image still draws me in, as it tells me of Nature and her delightful green palette. The interplay between sunlight and leaves creates patterns and shades of green that pull my mind into the image; and with that pull I find serenity.
I hope that you also find peace within your day!
