Yesterday I had to make a quick run to Truro. On my way back home I was compelled to stop and take some pictures. The last hurrahs of Autumn were calling to me. I took a little detour and then got lost in the pleasure of taking photographs.
Really, it is my passion. I lose track of time and all that exists is me and my subject. Sometimes I get so "focused" (excuse the pun) on what I am doing, I forget my surroundings and who might be around. Luckily nothing untoward has ever come of that.
Photography is probably one of the best de-stressers I can think of. At least for me:)A true escape. Of course it can be a bit of a pain for anyone with me, because I always have my camera and when a shot "presents" itself. I HAVE to snap. My family and friends are used to it now:) I am sure a lot of you feel the same way.
and....speaking of photography......( funny about that) .......
My next Sensational Snap Photography e-course starts on November 11th and runs for 6 weeks. It is a "no pressure" let's have fun with taking pictures and try some exercises to improve our photographic eye, sort of course. You can do it alone or participate.

nothing beats autumn as a model for photos. she spreads out her glory everywhere. still beautifully warm here in ontario. wish i could take the course but i am taking one with susannah conway right now. next time!
Your composition is perfect. Not that I know anything. Just in my opinion. Sigh. I will have to take a pass on your course for now. I need to get a good camera first.
Gee, you can paint AND photograph. Double gifted.
Hi Shelagh,
Suzie the Foodie sent me :)
Love your fall shots. I wish our weather was co-operating for a more colorful fall.
I've been sent here by Suzie the Foodie! :)
And now I'm a new follower! :D
I'll try to participate if I can access my laptop regularly. I've been having such a lovely adventure here in Ireland, "Playing Hookey"
Love, M.
