Find Your Way

That’s how I titled this image because the girl looks lost in a big world. I think collectors of this photograph will relate to that calling. The good news, though, is her Dad was close around so she is not alone.

The human spirit prevails….

It takes courage to find your song (in life) AND, if you’re musical, to share it right in the middle of the big city. Even when no one seems to listen or care. Courage, my friends. In addition to musician, I am always a sucker for light. Title: Solo

Patience Pays Off

Six miles of walking and shooting netted zip until I came to this Athens train station. It was the design that caught my eye BUT it was my patience that helped give life to the image.  I waited for one train to be still while the other pulled out. I also hoped for one passenger running to a train. With a VERY cold wind to my back, I shot 110 images over a 2 hour period. Creativity doesn’t just happen:-)

Head shot…for sure

Sometimes the best portraits make you wonder- give you less than more “information.” I’m not sure how I feel about this latest capture, but your comments will be helpful. My title options range from Head Shot to Good Head.

Stroke of genius….

Litigation conscious airlines, especially ones offering overseas travel, are mindful of strokes caused by long confinement in cramped seats. Maybe you have heard of their remedy. If not, it’s simple: get up once and a while AND do little leg and arm stretches to prompt circulation. This applies to flights of more than 4 hours in my mind. As I get ready a trip to Thailand later this month, I am trying to recall all the things that keep me safe…from on plane stretching to being careful not to take cabs (in many 3rd world countries) unless hailed by your hotel), to keeping wet ones with you. -www.slmphoto.com
