Got a little suggestion for ya...
Next time you go for a little stroll around ye ol' block, the next time you head out for your morning constitutional, take your camera.
And really look, really look, around you.
I tend to power-walk my way past some amazing beauty. Stroller, check. Dogs, check. Sippy cups, check. Garage door opener, check. Various Octamom kids, check. And away I go, intent on my route.
But when I slow down, take a look around, and frame up a few things in the eye of my camera, beauty abounds. The crimson of berries. The curve of the road. The incredible blue of a February sky. The faded gold of the grass.
And then, of course, there's the company...
So do me a favor. Go sightseeing...right outside your door...
I love that shot of the Pampas Grass.
