If you were to paint one word on the wall, what would you write?
Photographer Zack Arias asked this question via Twitter earlier this year. Dozens of people responded. After a few hours, Zack tweeted this:
Love. Passion. Glory. Inspire. Care. Learn. Persevere. Seek. Onward. Dream. Continue. Explore. Grace. Fly. Humility. Smile. Create. Remember.
What a lot of people didn't know was what Zack was going to do with those responses. Well, it turns out that the following night, Zack would hold a mixer in his studio in advance of his One Light Workshop in Atlanta, GA. Zack mentioned that everyone was welcome (no participation in the Workshop was required), and I decided to come. This was my first time meeting Zack in person, who was an amazingly gracious host.
I took a brief walk around his studio and then saw this giant banner...
So that's what you decided to do with those responses, I remember saying. The word “fly” (in black letters) is significant: it's what Zack said he would paint on his wall.

Found this in a charity shop and liked the vintage typography. Never heard of the game before. Autobridge is a bridge teaching and solitaire playing device.

I love old handwriting, the person listed above is actually a family member, and 1918 is a feasable date for when they were alive
I love the way the textured paper of the postcard shows up.
The kids got given an ice cream makers as a Christmas present.
Still life images are not my favourite to take but I find them fun to fiddle with in photoshop and add textures to.
I think I may need to learn to love them doing a 365 project as I know there are going to be days when I will need to resort to them. I am starting to compile as list of things in my house that I think cold make interesting photos.
Sometimes, at the end of the day it seems that everything I've done is as fleeting as the wet footprints I left behind after checking the mail in the rain. Proof that I was indeed here...but rather fleeting and unsubstantial. Somehow though they add up to the stuff that makes life easier...better...for my family...So tomorrow I will get up and do it all again...because I love them.
Photos shot for my weekly challenge word "Up". All shot in Tupelo MS, using the Nikon D700 and the 24-85mm lens. Processed in Paint Shop Pro X7 using Topaz plug-in B&W Effects.
Look for me here!

I think Paul’s sense of humour and fun shines through in this portrait. He is a former presenter for Oneword Radio, ex Literary Editor of The Lady magazine, and now Literary Director of Firebird Poetry Prizes. He also chairs events at many Literary Festivals.
