Long way from home

I wish I could express exactly how I am feeling right now. It's a mixture of knowing I need to heal from certain things to happiness of the journey that has taken place in my life over the years. Quite often I sit down and think how awesome God is. He took a girl from India, and brought her all the way over here. He could have brought anyone over here, but he chose me to be here...where I am.. to be surrounded by the people I am surrounded by, and it overwhelms the living life out me that I just start crying.

Lately every reading I do has been around the mind, and how to cope with the battlefield that is your mind. We all have our weak areas, but as I sat in church today thinking maybe God got the wrong girl I was reminded "God's not a liar, he used the man of God to speak things into my life" I have to walk it out.

So here starts another journey for the only man I would go gaga googoo over.

The Thing about Photography

Few months back I became the proud owner of my first D-SLR. Right after buying it I went to Cali,l and I fell in love with taking pictures. I came back to TX refreshed, and full of ideas. After coming back I faced a few personal problems, and along with it went on a dry spell . I took pictures here and there, but nothing like I would have liked too. So for months there on my floor sat a very expensive camera doing absolutely nothing. Last night a good friend of mine and I decided to go shooting after saying for a few weeks now.

When we got to our destination I must say I was a bit iffy about taking pictures. I felt like my "photo eyes" were no longer with me since it has been a minute. In fact I was not liking a single s

hot I took until the sun started descending. I got my inspiration while testing my shots and here is my inspiration shot.

While it may seem like a tree to just anyone. It lead to me asking my bff to pose for me for what I

envisioning.... a few bad shots later and figuring how to work with the lighting. This is what I ended up with...

Needless to say it occurred to me you can get rusty, but if you have a creative bone in your somewhere its hard to lose it.

My model/guy that got me out there so I can get this shot!...Thanks buddy!!!
