So often when I wish, they are selfish thoughts, wishing for things I have no right to expect. But this time I'm wishing for something I already had given to me on a plate.
Looking like an ice sculpture of a millionth magnified bed bug I have no wish to know is nibbling my dead skin under the duvet, here I stood on the legendary Diamond Beach in Iceland, surrounded by so many amazing chunks of ice. OK there was no sunlight, no dawn or sunset rays to pierce and dazzle through the crystal clear ice but there was an opportunity for me so many photographers will only ever get to dream of.
I've been lucky, in so many ways in life, I think but when presented with that rare, lucky chance I slip straight into click mode: the happy snapper, click, click, click. Bracketing. Hoping to get lucky with one. How I look back at my Iceland snaps now and wish I had just stood back for a moment and thought about what I was going to do instead of clicking away, slapdash style as usual. But that's me.

"The selfish, they're all standing in line
Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time
Me, I figure as each breath goes by
I only own my mind
North is to south what the clock is to time
There's east and there's west and there's everywhere life
I know I was born and I know that I'll die
The in between is mine
I am mine
And the feeling it gets left behind
All the innocence lost at one time
Significant behind the eyes
There's no need to hide
We're safe tonight
The ocean is full 'cause everyone's crying
The full moon is looking for friends at high tide
The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied
I only know my mind
I am mine"
After all, I don't see why I am always asking for private, individual, selfish miracles when every year there are miracles like white dogwood.

Wandering below the hadean seal
Shaking, mortified, making my way back to nowhere
This skeletal mask brings a demon of the day
There never would have been a light if the messenger in still life had regard for
The son of the damaged soul
Send the mirror falling
Heavens see that this man once had value among all the golden
But eccentric revisions in life brought on decay
Take submission from a man in control
Set the sail blowing, search for peace
A loose feeling consuming me
Blood is spent
A token for my sacrifice
Fallen angel, you speak my name
The needle turns, the hourglass is spinning around
Give it, I want it... a sense of a fucking life
I can almost feel mine at home
Selfish cries
I'm diseased
Let it pour out and show what has healed
One can finally find what's left in this masochistic personality
In a holy bond we live
Take a breath for seconds in this moment
Sail upon the open skies (Sail upon the open skies, Sail upon the open skies)
Exhale your death and feel life, like water raining from above
Majestic aura
Take in my breath and lock eyes with a world once absent of your love
Majestic aura
Blood is spent
A token for my sacrifice
The tortured realm has released my name
I can feel my body parting with this world Rebirth is starting from within
I'm born some place beyond your time
I'm born some place beyond your time Selfish cries
Flaunt disease
Own what's mine
Death upon my knees
Let it pour out and show what has healed
One can finally find what's left inside this masochistic personality
In a holy bond we live
Take a breath for seconds in this moment
Sail upon the open skies
Let it pour out and show what has healed
One can finally find what's left inside this masochistic personality
In a holy bond we live
Take a breath for seconds in this moment
Sail upon the open skies
Floating up above the hadean seal
Sounds of ambient voices will lead me from nowhere
This skeletal mask brings a demon of the day

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm going to make a lot of money
Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby cry
He tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye
It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
Singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

Sometimes I get TOO caught up in making "perfection". On this particular trip I was so disappointed that we left later than I had wanted to on our four drive to the mountains (9 am instead of 4:30 am with all 6 kids! can anyone say unrealistic expectations?!) We reached the places we had drove all this way for me to see - in the dead of the afternoon. The sun was glaringly bright. I stood at this spot looking at this incredible view and instead of feeling absolutely inspired and grateful to be here - I was too busy lamenting to myself that the shadows would be harsh, that the sun had ruined the moment. Yes, I 'm ashamed. I realized that in the photographer aspect I had let myself get "selfish" and discontent. It had become all about getting the "perfect" shot. If it was perfect it wasn't worth anything. But what about those moments of sheer awe, of just being in the absolute stillness and seeing these rolling peaks, that winding road that I had just drove up just minutes before?! This whole chain of thoughts made me realize how much I needed an attitude adjustment. On the heels of that came so many encouraging comments on my last post about posting pictures of my kids. You all really gave me so much to think about it... I've been thinking and re-examining, why I shoot? Why take the pictures? Why go to the perfect places? What is my reason for picking up my camera? I had to be brutally honest with myself. I wrote my reasons down and when I felt like I wasn't being honest with myself I scribbled them out! When I finally got an HONEST list that I knew from the bottom of my heart was true, I was shocked...and sad. Shooting had become too much about other people and so much less about myself. Perhaps this has evolved as I started a business. In aspects there isn't really choice on whether your shooting for a client or for yourself. When you take on clients, you shoot differently. You shoot with a different eye - because it's for someone else. This isn't bad. I'm not trying to make it sound like shooting professionally is bad... it's just I hadn't realized that it had consumed other aspects of my life - like shooting for me. What about me? What do I shoot for as an individual outside of my business? I sat down to this picture about a week later with new eyes to reavulate and re-edit. So new attitude adjustment- I am posting this because I love the mountains and I love this spot! ;) It makes me feel good (proud even) to go places, take my kids on adventures and spend time outdoors. Recording those moments is special to me. Somewhere in my landscapes there is a longing that I feel and see when going back over them. It's a freedom, a wanderlust, a reminder to GO. Don't make excuses, don't wait til later and don't ever make excuses not to take a picture because the weather or the timing isn't right for picture!!
Thank you for all the wisdom you all impart to me in your amazing comments. They keep me going, keep me thinking and ALWAYS keep my inspired and grateful to know and have such. wonderful community around me.
Happy Wednesday friends xxoo
much love,
Rachel
