[May 2008] Taking pictures, like singing and music, has become something therapeutic for me. Whenever I'm feeling sad or lonely or unproductive or uninspired...like I'm just spinning my wheels or turning in circles and getting nowhere...I can grab my camera and go out into the world and it always, always makes me feel better.
Not only does taking pictures thrust me out into the world even when I feel like withdrawing from it, but it makes me see the world again, or anew, and I inevitably end up interacting with it in a way I might not have before. And I see things I might not have seen --not really-- before. There are a lot of people who assert that putting a camera between yourself and the world creates some kind of 'barrier,' or that it disengages you from the 'here and now' because your experience is being mediated by a camera... But I tend to disagree. Rather strongly, in fact.
Take this photo for instance. I drove by an old barracks building out in the Marin Headlands yesterday afternoon, because I didn't know what else to do with myself, so I drove out to the Marin Headlands. Yeah, sure, there were a million things I could have and should have been doing with my precious weekend time, but I didn't want --or couldn't bring myself-- to do any of them. So instead of just turning circles in my apartment, I packed up my camera and got in my car and drove out to a place I hadn't visited in a number of years. As I was driving by this old barracks building, I (barely) noticed a lamp in a window, and the late afternoon light was hitting it in a certain way. I made a mental note of it and kept driving, but then I thought to myself, "No. You should stop. You should stop and get out of the car and try to photograph that lamp and that light -- because it caught your eye."
So I parked the car and walked back down the road and stood on the ground looking up at the window. I took a shot of the lamp --a simple clamp lamp-- but it didn't really come out. I could tell, though, from the way the light was hitting that lamp, that there must have been some wonderful late afternoon light pouring into the space... So I climbed up on the splintery old wooden platform [what are those things called? those old wooden platforms, like sidewalks, that you see in frontier towns and western movies?] to get a better glimpse.
And this is what I saw...this is what I found.
Now if I weren't a photographer, and if I didn't have a camera with me, I never would have seen this incredible little scene, this living still life. Because while the room was completely still and empty, it also felt like it was full of a presence -- either a memory of, or an anticipation of presence...
It's like therapy, for me, these moments...these little discoveries.
Which, I guess, makes this the therapist's chair.
I read the news today, oh my...
No need to comment. This is my therapy, after writing to all representatives and senators. They do nothing!
Shhh...back to therapy. Thanks for looking.

Katia is a life saver. My brother's therapist suggested he get a cat to help with his depression. My brother is now a changed person, thanks to this fluffy, sweet cat. Texture added.
the macromonday theme for today, 5/17, is soap and this is my choice for posting. It is a therapy bar of soap and I suppose the nubbins would feel good as you're showering to ease achy muscles.
Btb1- i really thought i'd do something with the grape slime soap (see farther down in the photostream), but i couldn't bring myself to open it up and put a mini-fig inside-- way too strong a scent and what to do with it afterward? it sounds like it would be slippery in a shower!!
Btb2, did you notice there is no blue, other than a little in the bokeh?

I was talking to my co-workers during lunch today about light painting and how relaxing it was. One of them said that it sounded like therapy, hence the title. :-) Hope everyone is having a relaxing middle of the week. :-) Image taken using strobe lights and Plexiglas with a black background.
It's minor jaunts like this that causes me to realize how connected to the coast I am. I have pretty much lived within a few hours drive of the Pacific. It has a comforting effect, always there in its various moods whenever I need it.
What do you think? I read an interesting article about this . If you are interested to read , let me know in the comment box. In the fall I shall write a post about it on my blog FUNandLIFE.2
Qu'en pensez-vous ? J'ai lu récemment un bon article- en anglais sur le sujet...

Three of our therapy dogs posing for photos when we visited St. Dominic's retirement community last week. These animals all started life as street dogs, the dog on the right has only one eye. After many months of rehab and training, they have emerged as wonderful canine good citizens.
I needed some nature therapy today and sat down on the ground and had a little chit chat with this little guy (Ant on the right ) I'm certain that he couldn't wait for me to leave

For me, Photography works as a therapy and when we are presented with a sunset like this ... certainly the week will run much better.
I hope you enjoy it and wishes for a good week ^_*

AAW September 21 - 28: Could be on my Wall
WIT: Made an abstract out of my therapy balls, and thought mountainous shapes would be good and related to my feet needing this therapy after a day of hiking. So I guess this could be hang on a wall of a rec room, or a physio therapy office, lol! Not much in post, just cropped and took out a few spots.
