First Blog Ever...

I wanted to create a place where I could explain various meanings through photographs I take, why I take them, what I had in mind, why I like them, and just share different thoughts in general about photography.  Through Facebook, I have found several people who actually like my photography-and that absolutely amazes me!  The thought that people would actually want to look at, let alone pay me for something that I captured-will never cease to blow my mind! So-having said that-I want to share a couple of photos to begin with.  The first a picture of a piece of art from Dave Chihuly that was displayed at Cheekwood Botanical Gardens.  I fell in love with the pieces and the place in general.  I cherish every photo I took there.  I spent an entire day there photographing pieces of Chihuly and the gardens/flowers themselves.  It was a very soulful trip-meaning it was a "me day-stress free, just attempting to be creative."   This piece was so stunning that I had my husband take me back at night to photograph it in a different light, and I had my new camera-Canon 7D-which I happen to fall in love with all over again every time I touch it!  And for the second picture...ahhh...I LOVE photographing flowers!  There  just aren't words to describe my feelings for that...I will just let the ever popular phrase, "A picture is worth a thousand words," describe this one!  I look forward to posting again soon!
