Seeing

Maery Rose

Have you ever looked through your camera lens and seen something you’ve never noticed before?

Have you ever looked back at your life and seen a you that you didn’t expect, a new angle come to light?

It’s the stopping and changing the direction of my head..or internally when I think about what has been said and put it in a different context. AND…when I first viewed your link to this post on facebook…the first photograph looks like the shadow of a bear…coming here and actually looking at the photographs made me smile…
