I love your honesty and straight forwardness. Happiness is from the inside. It is our heart talking. If we put negativity in it, negativity will come out. We all should live by our convictions and not circumstances. It sounds like you have a good base of convictions.

I wouldn’t want to post anything to upset anyone or anything that could come back and bite me on the butt! lol

I think your bubbly nature gives the impression everything in your life must be so wonderful, fairy-tale & magical, just like your art. but I think it’s more a case of you valuing the good & fulfilling parts, (as do I) enjoying them and letting them lift you up. Not always easy we all get bogged down at some point, but experiencing pain, heartache etc makes us appreciate the wonderful things we DO have and they are precious. Count your blessings is the old addage and it is SO true. x

I try to remind myself that I only share the positive moments and I’m not perfect, so neither are the people I follow.

I have a real love-hate relationship with Facebook, there are days where I feel it takes over my life and I’m waiting for something to happen or I look up and I’ve wasted an hour reading trash. So something I’ve been trying to do lately is share things with my friends that I think are worth reading, real inspiration rather than whatever is viral 🙂

Hi Patrycja! This is something I’m trying to perfect too 🙂 I’ve discovered it is easier to start with a smaller aperture (around a 5.6 or 8) and then as you get the hang of it you can open up. I also started with more static poses and am still to work up to more dynamic ones – next challenge!

I take my hat off to you if you can get anything in focus even with a remote on 1.4!!

Joe, that is really admirable. I love that you are trying to be open and honest and giving. I can see it in you. Thank you for sharing with me here.

I’ve always found it curious that for a medium that is so rooted in communication, that it can also be so lonely. We work in isolation often but typically hope to share, have our images appreciated, continually build a bigger audience, get feedback… Many photographers don’t comment on other photographers work because they fear losing their audience, or customers, or whatever.

My hope is by trying to be the most transparent, kind and open person I can, that I can rid myself of those moment where I’m worrying about what others are doing, feeling defeated or alone. Instead appreciate the gifts I’ve been given and pursue what brings me joy.

I not only adore the work you create, but love following your messages and videos. All the best to you! 🙂

It seems to come at the perfect time! The internet can show and not show a lot of thing about people, good or bad, and give many different representations and misrepresentations. It can be a gift in many ways and not in many others. But it truly is best to simply show your best self.
