Life after all doesn't stop because we have time management issues or wish the clock to stop ticking.  Nor does it stop because the world is terrorised into thinking that 'Judgement Day' was upon us.  Life can, however, take an unexpected and pleasant turn without warning.  Equally it can take an unexpectedly unpleasant turn.  Who knows which one we will get next.  Sometimes I am forced to think that I have severely hurt someone in a past life and am here in this life as penance.  There must be a lesson in this life I am yet to learn.  No matter what life throws at me I am grateful for my children, my husband, my family and friends.  The old sayng goes ... if life gives you lemons, make lemonade!  

As you know from my last journal entry I am focusing my photography on things that matter to me or my family, things that have a special meaning or symbolism to me.  I have been taking some photographs which are to be used as part of a commercial endeavour I never thought I would create.  It is a time of creating a future for myself that I never expected to follow - it was always just a dream, a vision, wishful thinking.  I'll let you in on that secret WHEN it comes to fruition.  Moving forward: onward and upward!

In this light I set about taking photographs that express the wonder of nature and to create photographs that I believed would capture the attention of people and hold their gaze a little longer than usual.   Since I am not adept at Photoshop or photo editting software I needed to look for events or situations that were a little more interesting in their composition.  I like a challenge! My next challenge is learning Photoshop; I need to find a someone who has the time to teach me the basics then the fun and exciting stuff.

So, I took these photographs with my new and future endeavour in mind- and I am proud of them. I will also add some of my older photographs (see below) to this collection  I wanted to say thank you to all those who   my work.  I just can't seem to find enough time to thank you all individually.  

     
Tell me if you think you know what my future commerical endeavour will be.
