RE: Show me a snap of your life win $10 SBD and a STEEM luggage tag
Thank you for your service. I blog about many things but I too am a photographer. I love photography, the photos above was taken with my cell phone and not my good camera.
You are welcome. I got into photography as a way of seeing the beauty in this world and it has opened my eyes so much. In a way it has saved my life and given me a whole new outlook on things. I have written a few blogs so far since I started on Steemit. They have mostly been on my travels to Africa and the time I spent living with a Maasai tribe, but I wanted to try and build up a decent following before I really started writing about all my experiences. Mostly I have been posting photography and trying to learn this platform because it is a lot more involved than a normal social media platform. Anyways, thank you for putting on this competition. It will be great to see where your Steemit journey takes you.
It is winter in Indiana right now, a wet one at that, and I haven't been out much with my camera, but we also just finished building a house and just moved in over the weekend. Once we getting settled I will be posting a ton of photos myself again. I love this platform. I found steemit in June and it has been a game changer.
I got into photography to save my own sanity as I needed something to fill my time as my kid started flying the nest. I have been a stay at home mom working from home selling things on eBay for years home schooling my kids. As the middle one was about to graduate and leave for college, I started having panic attacks on what I was going to do on the next stage of my life, as my baby graduates this May. And photographer was my lifeline. It has give me a new outlook too. I see things I overlooked before.
Utah has had a weird winter this year. It was 55 degrees a few days ago and then it dropped and snowed about 5 inches and now its about 20 degrees. I haven't done much photography this winter. I've been focusing on my filmmaking more. When our kids are done with school my wife and I want to move to Thailand for a few years and just travel the world. I figure we would get some pretty awesome photography and documentary film opportunities doing that.
We plan to do some travel photography but we plan to keep our home base here near our family. But the weather has been weird lately. Yesterday was a really nice unseasonably warm day. 78 degrees was the high. Today's high has been 38 and it is nasty out and raining.
