When I started this blog, it was to get what's in my head all the time, that voice down in print. To see what it all looked like. The photography element of it started off simply as images to illustrate what I wanted to say. Right from the start I didn't want to think about either element too much. There is so much amazing writing and photography out there that I didn't want to over analyse what I was doing.
Photography for me is approached in much the same way as my writing. Like there's a voice in my head, there is an image or a set of circumstances that need to be captured. We have been away and I have captured a few scraps of inspiration. Like all attempts at art for me it's like chasing a fragment of light or a shadow out of the corner of my eye. With practice I will catch/capture more I'm sure.
Lovely words Jo and images to match. I have found that photography is becoming a big part of my life and one that I am embracing. I particularly love your image of your little one watching the sea from the clifftop - you have captured that image as if through the eyes of a child - just beautiful. x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. I have always been interested in photography but it's only recently that I've been attempting to really understand it. Like Jen, I also love that photo of your daughter standing near the cliff.
