I was thinking about one of my favorite things today, photography, capturing life in one image in a moment in time. Its not just about taking a photo or the right light, but capturing life as I see it. I'm a visual person tried and true. Partly this why I am pants with voicemail.
When Zach was a substitute teacher in San Francisco Unified School District (not an easy task) I would sometimes ask him, "what did you see today?" By this I didn't mean a tree or a truck (but he could say that and it would be fine). What I wanted to know was what did you see, what captured your heart, what life image was imprinted into your heart and mind? What made you think? What made you question?
I love this question and I love photography, because they encourage us to pay attention to the life and lives around us, so rich with untold stories and significant meaning.
