Finding inspiration - Photography

I find myself stopping to look at something that captures my attention. One of my first actions is to pull out my camera or phone to try and capture the moment. It is how I try to remember the moment. Sometimes the image takes my breadth away and if I am lucky it helps inspire me to find words that I shape into a poem.

Yet in that moment if others are with me they scratch their head and sum it up as me being me... (Well there are a few who understand).  I met someone who inspires me in a number of ways. Through them I have met others who also inspire me. Now in that moment when they are by my side I do not need to explain why I need to stop. Why I need to capture the moment. Plus what they capture can take my breadth away. 

Thank you for inspiring me and for understanding that sometimes you have to stop to capture the moment. I feel lucky that I have been allowed to travel with you on your photographic exhibitions and learn from each of you.

Moving back

Where have I been since 2012... Moving On...

After planning to move to WordPress I did with my writing blog To Write is to Dream.  I hoped it would allow me to bring all my blogs into one site, while still having different streams.  I discovered I couldn't do this easily with WordPress.  In the end all I did was waste money on an experiment. The extra site meant more work and my posts all but stopped.

I am now moving back to Blogger for my blog ... I want to keep the domain name I created, so I am trying to change my Domain Host and apply it to Blogger.

What is next...

Maybe with this domain I can explore using it to connect different blogs.  I am considering starting to post on this, or another blog, other areas of creativity like photography and beading.  There is also my desire to find inspiration in others and to this end I created the Twitter account @BehindDreaming. It will be fun to connect all of these through a tool like Tumblr and to figure out where all the pieces fit.

Where I am going... To be continued!
