You have conveyed a wonderful sense of place in these images. With so many photographs in circulation, perhaps maybe what we need is a new vocabularly for this new visual currency.<br /><br />Thank you for the llink :)Annie Cholewahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17608057589525908147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-82165103956567139552015-02-20T09:50:34.753-08:002015-02-20T09:50:34.753-08:00I like that idea -- and yes, really, all I'm t...I like that idea -- and yes, really, all I'm trying to do is share what I see, and perhaps begin a conversation. . .

It's been a simple and efficient de-stressing way to stay fit and that I'm really surprised I've come to enjoy. Now that I'll be retired, might get a chance, like you, to add some x-country skiing to the mix -- now that's a workout!materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-89709414655538334232015-02-19T07:35:51.480-08:002015-02-19T07:35:51.480-08:00I'll have to go over to read the post you reco...I'll have to go over to read the post you recommend. I'll also have to think about those labels. Whatever we call ourselves, when we share our world we make it smaller, encourage dialogue, reach out.....so maybe we should say we're Ambassadors if we are applying labels. I enjoyed your photos today - snapshots of the unique place you call home, a different view of a city I know quite well and encouragement to think about the way I see my world as I go about my regular rounds.

I miss it. Been -20-something here for way too long. Too cold to ski most days. I'll focus on your images instead of the pile of white stuff out my window.Sue Burpeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07282970328494769657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-82205628065901835462015-02-18T07:46:43.004-08:002015-02-18T07:46:43.004-08:00;-)!;-)!materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-27601501243296049642015-02-18T07:46:33.578-08:002015-02-18T07:46:33.578-08:00Thanks, Lisa.

It seems to work well. <br />I read Annie's post. In the same way that one who writes is encouraged to think of herself as a writer, one who takes photos for pleasure, not only profit, can also call herself a photographer. Amateur, perhaps, but finding delight through the lens offers a new way of looking at the world.
