The Shutter Release

I want to thank everyone that has donated and also those that have signed up to participate in The Shutter Release Project. www.theshutterrelease.com We appreciate your interest, generosity and thoughtfulness.

I want everyone to know that if you have a passion for photography this event is for you. We're not looking for just a room full of professional photographers - all levels are encouraged to partake in this event.
I had a photography teacher in college that shoots professionally share that he's seen amazing photography come from a disposable camera... it's in the eye, seeing something in a new way and presenting it differently. I believe that. So if you have a passion for photography or know someone that does - come showcase your photography at The Shutter Release Project.
           


"We are always looking for reasons for not taking good pictures. Cartier-Bresson used film camera, same lens, no flash, same shutter speed – he didn’t need the newest digital equipment to take great photos.
We all have access to some subjects that no one else has access to – look at your friends’ hobbies, the workplaces of friends and family, and any place you have access to to find a vision that comes uniquely from your access. Many people would dream of having the same access you have, and you might not have considered how valuable your access is." http://www.digital-photography-school.com/photography-quotes

Lies and Secrets

I don't want to say that I work really hard to be a good person, because that would imply that's not the true essence of who I am. The way I live my life is simple - honesty, loyalty, trust, and prayer. If you live your life based on lies, I don't trust anything that you say or do. It's a personal thing. When you grow up in an environment based on secrets and lies, you value and respect honesty. I had the honesty conversation with one of my granddaughters last night when my grandson blurted out some things that are going on in their home. Immediately my granddaughter reprimanded him stating that they're not suppose to tell people their parents business. I'm not going to lie, when she said that to him, the flashbacks started coming. I calmly explained to her that adults should never ask children to keep their secrets or lies, and if they live in fear of their business being told, maybe they should be living their life right, because I'm good with people
