Pictures For Pam, Day 1: Nature's Lanterns

-------------------------
Every morning I walk up and down our gravel driveway for an hour and 15 minutes to invigorate me and to get my exercise too. I do a lot of thinking while I make my way up and down the 20-30% grade, and lately, I've been thinking about Pam Johnson. We were lucky enough to meet on ipernity years ago and struck up a very warm friendship based on our love of photography, nature and animals. She's hit a rough spot and is working to recover, and I've been sending my healing energy her way.
As I've walked up and down, I cannot help but see the lovely terrain of my rural property and every time I see something especially pretty, I think about Pam and wish that she could see the lovely gift presented to me. It struck me...maybe I help both of us at the same time. You see, I've been in a creative black hole for a long time. My first thought of sending Pam a picture was struck down by my lack of interest in lifting a creative finger. But then I thought to myself, "You know...you're never going to get your fire back until you take the first step. And wouldn't it be nice to show that you're thinking about Pam by showing her what made you think of her?"
And so it occurred to me that I could create a photography project that would hopefully help us both.
This is day one, and I present the image that struck me first: the glowing lanterns from the empty seed pods of a weed. I especially love to find sights like this, which show the beauty of an otherwise dreary landscape. All you need to do is open your eyes and see the brown, dead fields in a new way. Suddenly the number of wonderful images burst forth, and you have the joy of seeing them all, where you were blind to them just a moment before.
I hope that you like the pictures I'll be posting for you, Pam! And at the same time, let us hope that I will rekindle my love of photography again, finding the beauty in things missed by most. :) *big hugs from your friend in Oregon*
