Something to think about 185/365

I watched a video showcasing the work of Michael "Nick" Nichols, editor-at-large at National Geographic. He was speaking on his tree project and the process he went through photographing the world's second largest redwood.

The entire video was very interesting but the thing that stuck with me was when he emphasized finding something you really care about and going crazy with it. He explained it's always about your passion for that something. When you find that one thing that interests you more than life itself, use it to develop your voice. It'll be what you have to scream to the world about.

What do I want to scream out to the world?

I feel very rambling-ish trying to write what is going on in my head. It made so much sense when he said it that I know I want to find that one thing that does it for me.

I'll keep you posted.

Little miss giggle pants 183/365

I can't remember what we were talking about but I jumped up, got my camera, and started spinning the dials. Both girls are pretty used to this and they usually throw on their "mama's-got-her-camera-out" look. You've all seen it, fake smile with dull eyes. After saying something ridiculous, she started giggling and this was my favorite of the evening.

There's great stuff happening behind those eyelids.
