In Awe
In September last year, I visited my daughter, who is now living in Norway with her now Norwegian fiancé. My daughter and I spent an amazing 3 weeks sighseeing around the south part of Iceland, and then up the north west part of Norway, to the Senja/Lofoten regions. For an Australian lad, who is so accustomed to wide-open landscapes, these regions were a massive contrast and my jaw almost got sore being blown away by the startling rugged beauty of these two countries.

Tranquility
I have always loved the skyline in Colorado during sunset hours, especially since being single. Trying to capture the beauty around me has been something that made me want to initially be a photographer. This was one of the first images I took that inspired me and made me feel like I could take beautiful photos. It also pushed me to want to become a better photographer.

Dandelion Side Effect
Dandelion Side Effect I was standing in front of a big white dandelion, thinking of my dreams. There wasn't too much of them. Probably one or two. A running girl got closer to me. I pulled myself out of her way immediately. She stopped, looked around, and stared at my eyes. then she opened her month kindly.

Stunning Picture Framing Ideas for Office Interior Design
Many of us today are working professionals who spend hours of our day at the office in our cubicle. It feels good to have your cubicle as it gives you privacy from your coworkers and makes you more focused on your work. However, after some time, you may get bored of seeing the blank neutral fabric on the cubicle walls, which is so simple and standard. It may make you think to give it a statement adding some things which showcase your personality by putting personal items. You can hang anything in your cubicle to add freshness and energy to your cubicle, and you can do this by adding specially designed stunning picture frames for office cubicles and your office.

The Life Lines
In 2014 I was diagnosed with Schizo-Affective Disorder. Basically, I am overstimulated by voices, sights, and feelings, if my stress levels go up or my anxiety is too heightened. For support I was staying around only family and spent much of my time at my parents home.

The Art of Teaching Art
There are many photos that take your breath away. This happens to be one of them for me. Sometimes, it becomes impossible for a camera to see what you see. And sometimes, it becomes impossible for others to do the same. Just like a camera, we have our own lenses, our own points of view, and our own visions of what we hope others can capture by the photos we present.

4 Ways To Find Inspiration As A Beginner Photographer
Photography is an art. And every artist knows that there are moments when inspiration decides to abandon them and doesn't seem to plan to come back soon. The deadlines are accumulating, the calls from clients don't stop, but the ideas just don't come to a head.

Favorite Shots
So a little backstory about this shot. We were at the zoo and I really wanted to test my camera out and see if I had any potential to be a photographer, and this was one of the shots of the day. When I showed it to my father, who knows a little bit more about photography, he said you can't even see the frog but I told him thats kind of what I liked about this shot. I've always liked to capture or look at images that kind of show the mysteriousness of nature.

Power of Photography
“No photograph ever changed anything all by itself, for photographs are highly dependent creatures and their influence is entirely contingent on words, circumstances, distribution, and belief systems “ is quoted from ‘under the influence of photography’ by Goldberg. This quote explains a lot about why the photograph ‘Dali Atomicus’ by Phillippe Halsman has a great cultural significance. It has such an importance culturally because it not only explains a lot about physics, looking inside the idea of suspension, but it also has a cultural impact because of the context behind the image and its important message. The photograph’s message seems to be that if you work hard, the product you end up with will be worth it. This image affects me personally because of the message it portrays in such a joyful way.
