Take Three Thursday: Adventures in Seeing

I’m joining Mary Lou at Patio Postcards where “the idea is to take 3 photos that are linked some how; by theme, by colour, by date, by moment, by points of view.” I spent last weekend in Niagara-on-the-Lake at a wonderful workshop, “Adventures in Seeing” led by Kim Manley Ort. Kim’s book, Adventures in Seeing: How the Camera Teaches You to Pause, Focus and Connect with Life, focuses (like the workshop) on contemplative photography. The group that gathered for the workshop was diverse and inspiring, and I’ll have a lot more to say about it later. But for now, here are three photographs:

Heartstring

Stairway to Heaven

Survivor

Blogging is likely to be intermittent at best for the next several weeks. I’ll pop in when I can, but family and travel are going to be taking up most of my time. It’s a blessing I don’t take for granted, and in the spirit of mindfulness I’ll be focusing on the experiences (with a camera nearby, no doubt!)
