This is a photo blog of self expression. All the images I post are self assignments driven by the need for more creativity in my life. This is my escape from the everyday shooting as a professional photographer.
This is why I always have a camera with me. I walk my dog Charlie every morning, and the amazing thing is every morning is different. This was one of those mornings that looked like one of the old masters oil paintings. As I looked at the sky, suddenly the sun popped out between the trees on the horizon. I know a lot of people are not morning people but with a little coffee maybe you to could enjoy the morning light. LynnFreeny.com
It is a funny thing to think how many things we just walk by and never observe. I have walked by this mail box many times and never noticed anything, even in the warm early morning light. This morning as I walked Charlie it hit me like a ton of bricks. I first saw the red flag contrasted against the black that seemed to scream at me. The second thing I observed was the heavy dew that was running down the mailbox. The third thing I saw was the warm reflective light of the morning sun. Without that last element the image would have lacked the ability to keep my interest. One good lesson I learned from this image is never take anything for granted even a boring mail box.
