nourishing my soul

When I sent my daughter and husband off for the day I saw the window light hitting this coiled wire sitting on the workbench. I loved the way it picked up the light and the shadows are built in. I spent some time playing and exploring the ways I could shoot this but settled on filling the frame. This is what I do with my time that I set aside for my creative pursuits, I practice seeing the interesting in the mundane and every now and again I succeed. If nothing else, I am slowing down and searching.

 

I saw this fantastic quote yesterday by Kurt Vonnegut and I am no longer going to apologize for my images, “To practice any art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow. So do it.” I will now consider it nourishing my soul and embrace the time and efforts in a less harsh way or at least I'll try. Who wants to join me?
