"Camera Therapy: How Photography Gave Me Hope Again"

For those of you out there who enjoy photography, either just by trying to take good snapshots as I do, or by striving to elevate it to an art, as a few of you do, here's a great, short article from Digital Photography School

Camera Therapy: How Photography Gave Me Hope Again

I subscribe to DPS and get their weekly e-newsletter. I'm sure a number of you already are very familiar with the site, but if not, do check it out. They offer much to learn, no matter what your skill level.

As for other things, the week continues to roll along just fine. A couple of new work projects on the go, one well in hand (knock on wood), another coming along. A few work bumps along the way, but some dark chocolate (and a gluten-free beer this evening) are my therapy. The high today was 3C (that's 37F, I think), so I admit I certainly wasn't in the mood to indulge in any camera therapy. If this cooling trend keeps up, I'll be in long johns again before you know it.

We have a new neighbour in our townhouse complex, just thought I'd share a few snapshots from a few days ago.  :-)

Here s/he is, outside my fence. Derry was outside, Nicki inside. I slipped out front and took a few snapshots. I grabbed the little Elph, though, so couldn't zoom in close.
I hope everyone's week is going well. Almost Friday! Almost our monthly payday--yay!

Universal Blessings, Light and Mercy to All Beings.

Thanks for the link! I'm all for indulging in all things creative to gain one's mojo back again! Good for Shaun!

And I will always applaud the creative use of chocolate! Yay!

Awwww your new neighbour is gorgeous and already looks like he or she is feeling most at home!

Kim, Thanks for the article. I am passing it along to a photographer friend who has hit a rough spot. He is having back surgery next week. His mother, who lives in the midwest just had a massive stroke. After the surgery, he will be relocating to the midwest to help his mom and will have to leave his beloved Alaska where his photographic inspiration was born. This article will be so good for him to read. We never know whose life we are touching when we post on a blog...that is the magic of sharing. Have a great day!

An afternoon spent taking photos is always good for the soul. Especially when cute kitties are the subject! :)
