Things Photographers See That Others Might Not

SUMMARY: Wordless (mostly) Wednesday

Five of us sat in the same location. Four wondered what on earth I was shooting. One of us just smiled.

Father's Day...

SUMMARY: notes from facebook June 6, '16

Backfill: Didn't post this until August 2, 2016

A friend posted on Facebook today:

Just realized for the first time in my life, I don't have to worry about Father's Day plans.
That was a blow.

And I replied--

I've been going through exactly the same thing this year. And we are not alone [based on other comments I've seen on FB lately]. 

I've been seeing or hearing things that might have turned into nice father's day gifts (such as activities), and then -- oh, right. 

I empathize. It's interesting how Father's Day was no big deal--I did try to do something most years, even just a card--but now, this year, it looms large.

Several additional people noted on this post, "Same here," or the equivalent.

And then, of course, this reminder from another person:

25 years for me this year...and it still will be sad

Fathers are both not forever and forever.

I look a lot like my dad.

Dog-photo envy

SUMMARY: One of the world's best dog photographers.

If you want skill-envy or fast-lens envy or location envy, all of these things are yours with these beautiful dog photos and accompanying article:

(And really I didn't post it for the envy factor.  I posted it for the inspirational factor, because, wow, does she show something to strive for! Here's one of the images.)
