Passages

Those of you who followed my old blog probably know

that I love reflections and the concept of visual tricks

that glass can play when recorded in 2 dimensions.

Usually our brain will compensate in real time 

when we view reflections in glass,

filtering out information as to what is a reflection and what is real.

However, when a camera records the same scene in two dimensions,

it can seem like a visual puzzle or a seek and find game.

I love that.

I love that our brains are so incredible at deciphering and 

filtering out the visual stimulus all around us without us even trying.

Doorways...

Something else I love.

It really represents life, does it not?

The passages from one period of our life into another;

the opportunities that open and close in our lives;

the choices we must make as to what path we must follow...through THIS door or THAT door.

So many metaphors could be created.

Today I am thankful that I am finally beginning to feel like picking up my camera again.

It does bring me such joy and I was really scared that 

I wouldn't ever feel that urge or satisfaction from photography again.

It is slow in coming, but I am finding myself wanting to pick up the camera.

Now, if I could just get my appetite and taste back,

that would be great.
