Day 1 of my blogging journey

Just the other day, my BFF posted on my Facebook wall…“You know, if you had a blog, I'd follow you religiously”…what an amazing vote of confidence.  As if she thinks I have something to say and that it's worth reading.

But what would I write about, I posted in return…”the way you see life through your lenses” she said.

I have wanted to start a blog for some time, but have never gotten around to it, not knowing what I would blog about. 

Her post got me thinking that I do in fact see life through my lenses.  As an amateur photographer, everywhere I go, everyone and everything I see inspires me to take a pic and freeze the moment.  I see textures, colors and beauty in everything around me. I love faces, architecture and nature when I’m travelling or even when on my way to work every morning.

What may seem mundane to some people is art in the making to me.

I remember taking the train to Montreal last spring and taking pics of the train tracks and old buildings on the way.  My friend Fran looked out the window and wondered what I was photographing.  To her, nothing seemed worthy of capture, but to me, it was full of possibility.

So maybe, I do have something to say and thoughts to share, after all, my pics are a reflection of who I am and what I love.

I invite you to follow me on my blogging journey.  I don’t promise to write every day but I will make the effort.  You can expect to see my pics and read about what inspires me to take them.

And since it’s because of my BFF, Suzanne, that I am starting on this journey…I would like to share a pic I took of both of us.  This pic was taken on the day I did a photo shoot with Sue. She was a perfect model and is just has beautiful today as when we started hanging out together when we were both 15.  I love you my BFF, you hold a very special place in my heart. xx



Thank you for joining me on my journey!
