the wandering chick
When it comes to taking pictures, my motto is this:
Always look behind you.
The scene there may be as magnificent as the one ahead.
Welcome to my picture collection.
Most of my adult life has been spent with camera in tow, always with one eye on the road and the other looking out for the perfect shot.
It never takes long to find.
The graceful weeping willow, the orange sunset, the crashing waves. The joy of capturing such serenity, such quiet beauty always gets my heart pumping and my soul singing.
A novice, yes. But I doubt few pros feel more adrenaline flow than I each time the shutter is released.
Whether traveling with family and friends, or wandering alone down the highways and byways, the beauty is only surpassed by the thrill of finding it.
