LOVE IS POSSIBLE
Lately I’ve noticed I haven’t been taking as many photos as normally. I need to get back on that. I’ve been thinking the same thought every time I pack up my junk and get ready to step out the door, "I probably won’t find something very interesting today. It’ll be fine." and invariably I come across a situation where I needed my camera. Fortunately I have a cameraphone with me but still, it’s not quite the same.
Last week, one morning after a storm, I was crossing Broadway on my way to work. There, off to my left, was a gentleman pulling out his pocket-sized digital camera (why wasn’t that not with me?) and pointed it at the Empire State Building. Big whoop, every tourist takes a photograph of it. Still, I paused to look. The top quarter of the building had a glow to it; the clouds had parted and let a giant beam of light rain down right atop its spire. It was glorious.
That said, I’m carrying any one of my many cameras with me every day this week. Let’s see what comes up.
I’ll leave you with something I came across with my camera phone this weekend…
…perhaps it is possible.
