August 2014 ~ Photo Heart Connection reignited

August Picture ~ Mystic Sunrise~on Samsung that re-Ignited my photo-heart connection
This is a  backwards story here..So bear with me, please. Nearly a month ago Mike and I took a mini vacation weekend to Fredericksburg. .  On our way up there  I was able to take this picture below.

When I viewed this mystic sunrise on my phone I teared up knowing that I caught a moment in time that would be a memory maker and personal game changer.  As hubby stopped several times on this trip just so I could take a few more snapshots I realized... I really missed having my camera and taking pictures such as these. No real reason as to why I let photography fall to the wayside, other than I just didn't make the time to grab the tripod and camera.. it had just become easier to use my phone... Most importantly,  While the phone takes good pictures I realized that I missed the intent to go and take pictures. A form of self-care.  As always my husband really heard me when I said that... and with that he ran with it... he researched for weeks without ever saying a word until he was comfortable letting me know what he was thinking.  He said he had been looking at a Nikon for me. He wanted me to get it so that I would have enough time to get comfortable with it before we take  our vacation to go see our grandson once he arrives. Mike knows that I will want to take a million pictures of him once we get there. We also have plans to take one of those weekends and go see a dear friend in  North Carolina. An added bonus, is  hopefully it will be prime fall foliage picture taking time.  So I have lots of practice I need get in before we hit the road.

 This picture is one of the very first with my new camera. A happy result of  having my photo heart connection  reignited.

From the bottom of my heart I want to thank Kat for continuing to encourage/ support The Photo Heart Connection. As soon has I felt that connection to the picture I realized how much photography really does touch my heart and I wanted this joy back into my life.

What a special Photo-Heart Connection! For me the journey has been in the opposite direction, and for the past year or so I've felt happier and more inspired with the spontaneity of my iPhone camera than when I lug around my Nikon. Your husband sounds pretty terrific, by the way. How wonderful that you've realized what you need and that he actively supports you in that!
