Every time I go to a field and take pictures I am refilled. I am reminded why I love life. I smile very often, but I smile the most genuine when engrossed in natural beauty. I capture things and give them immortality. A picture never changes; it is still and true. For christmas I received a AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm 1:4G ED lens and I now know what love feels like. I can see things differently through it. It's like my own personal telescope. I see tail lights, feet, detail, and patterns from over 100 feet away. So this means I can spy on all my neighbors and know all of their secrets now, right?
I took my brother into a field I recently found and made him a model. I love that boy in a very special way that I cannot begin to describe.
I enjoy the fact that fields lend themselves in very unexpected places. Behind an old or new building, school, or even Church. To find them you must be aware of life. Hidden gems don't flaunt themselves. They are hidden.
The best pictures are the unplanned and raw moments that are captured. That genuine smile that appears when someone laughs and crinkles their nose. It is true beauty. Beautiful things don't ask for attention, but are always present. When recognized, your lens can capture a beautiful thing when it is not looking.
My lens and myself seek this hidden beauty of life.
~One of the extravagant things about God is that He created an entire planet full of hidden beauty for me to spend the entirety of my exsitense exploring~
