Trees and Dreams in the Fog, PART II



Trees and Dreams in the Fog, PART II

My advice:  Always carry a camera.  Ok, so you’re not a photography nut and think photos are best kept to special occasions, with everybody staring wide-eyed, usually sitting and looking up at the camera.  Yeah, just as interesting as always having vanilla pudding for dessert.

How about the time you saw your young son or daughter sniffing the first flower?  Or your yard has a Fall coat of colorful leaves?  And one of my favs, fog.  Take some candids of those around you, some close-ups of your roses, or your kitchen triumph.  Except for landscapes, rely on ‘the closer the better.’

No, not going to turn you into a photographer, but beware of Cartier-Bresson’s watchwords:  Take the shot or lose it forever.  And don’t lose those precious moments at home or with friends. 

And another thing….isn’t there always!....You don’t need anything more than a cell phone or a pocket camera to catch those shots.  I shoot mostly with a Sony RX 100.  Fits in my pants pocket.

But, enough about you. Let’s get back to another array of black and white photos of my relationship with trees and the fog.
