perspective

When I was looking at this photo I took of the side of Wildwood's Convention Hall on the boardwalk I was struck by how much photography has changed the way I look at the world. And then I realized that it wasn't the act of taking the photo that had changed my perspective, but all of you, my friends and contacts

. Every day, I look at all of the amazing pictures that you all take.....everything from the incredibly spectacular, to the common everyday things around you......and by looking through your lens, I see things in totally new ways.

I was up on the boardwalk looking at old cars.when I noticed this shot. In the days before the camera I would have been oblivious of the wonderful shadows.....all the vertical and horizontal lines...how your eye is drawn toward the vanishing point, but because of your inspiration, I was able to "see" it.

So thank you all my contacts.....and to all the rest of the wonderful photographers out there in Flickrland that inspire me each and every day!
