Imagine Peace

peace takes work

war takes lives

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.

Peace is always beautiful

One does not export democracy in an armored vehicle.

"Personally I like my photography straight, unmanipulated, devoid of all tricks; a print not looking like anything but a photograph, living through its own inherent qualities and revealing its own spirit."

- Alfred Stieglitz

You put your camera around your neck in the morning, along with putting on your shoes, and there it is, an appendage of the body that shares your life with you. The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.

Ever since I visited my first tropical rainforest, El Yunque on Puerto Rico, I have been enchanted by these places. While visiting Saint Lucia, I scoured the forest canopy to find a composition I liked.

The texture is the star so I removed the color. Hope you like it! =o) On another note, Hootie the Barred Owl was hanging out in our backyard tonight on a fence post. She sure seems to like our yard, which makes me happy, but also feeling a pang of guilt that it may be because of all the fat squirrels who’ve been feasting at our feeders. I know, it’s the circle of life, and you can’t have one without the other. That’s my story, and I’m stickin’ to it. ;o)

Hugs and thanks for viewing! =o)
