I sat with this photograph, and thought and thought about what article or lesson I could write for my weekly “Life Reflections.” And kept coming up with nothing.
Because I just like looking at it…feeling the joy of of making the image, the perfect day I had…and that is enough.
THIS is the inner path of photography.
No lesson needed.
