52 on Friday-Week Twelve

A blog circle of photographers from all over the world, both amateur and professional alike, sharing their interpretations of a common theme.  At the bottom of each post, click the link for the next photographer until you come full circle, back here to my blog.

"Books"

This week I've tried not to spend too much time inside, but more time outside because the weather has been so unseasonably warm.  If I go outside I'm rarely sitting down to enjoy the moment. This week though was different.  I took the outdoor chair cushions out of the attic more than a month before I normally would and, on more than one night this week, I sat outside,my feet propped up, with nothing but my thoughts.  Tonight however I tried to incorporate one the books that first influenced my love of photography.  Now that I'm finally understanding the mechanics and rules of photography it's time to start creating my images instead of just photographing them.

  1. So glad you spent time outdoors because it is just wonderful. The pollen is so bad here in NC that you cannot sit outside for long or you will be a yellowish-green color. I love your shot and a great take on books. Good job.

  4. Cool shot! Love your perspective here. It's been unseasonably warm here too, although it's cooled down again. Makes me wish I had hauled my cushions and chairs out when it was nice!!
