I The nights are drawing out now and the dawn is just getting earlier, cycle of life.
Do all you do, is take pictures pretty much, I replied. I was down at an old favourite again, third time in 2 days, twice on my own and once, with the apprentice. What do I take a picture of, she asked, whatever you want. In the end, I set a shot up for her, let her see, what I would have done, how sometimes, before doing so, just take out your camera and phone and wander about, higher lower, closer further away, It is all different.
What do you do with all your pictures, she asked me, not a lot, I replied, I did tell her, that I have ones sitting aside in project folders, that one day, I will make into little books for myself, that I had just started another new one. But that it was like taking the picture, sitting at the computer, trying to work out, how, you want it too look. It calms me , I have started spending a little bit more time.
When we walk to where we are going she talks all the time, I think, I know her life now, she said to me, a few weeks ago, why are you so easy to talk too, why does she share what she does with me. her two sisters tease her about her new boyfriend and she just plays along, before anyone thinks anything, there is nothing like that going on. But a bit like me, a camera is changing her life and it is giving her a life again. happiness through a viewfinder.
I am in a place in life, where it changes with the seasons now, that is the meaning of life too me.
I have been sitting typing this and only wearing a pair of Star War themed loungers and fun fact for the day, I have never seen any Star War films ..
Next step in the change, first Daffodil, I have seen in flower in the woods, I lay on the ground looking up and for that time, nothing else happening in the world mattered.
