My Favorite Place

How far I have come!


Photography has opened up a whole new world for me
How I love looking at my life
through my camera lens
I feel safe and connected there.

My photo prompt for 
this week
was "My Favorite Place"
I had to really think on this one!

I thought of my art studio
where of course I love to be
I thought of my back yard
which is my little corner of heaven
I thought of the ocean shore
in the Outer Banks
where I seek refuge
over and over again
I thought of my Poetry Books
where I retreat to
for nourishment
I even thought of my weaving loom
who has been with me for so long

None of these places were
exactly my favorite,
then I realized that it had to be
behind my camera lens
for that truly is my favorite place!


My camera is my constant companion
there is always something new that I
see and observe
and that I want to capture!
I am having so much fun with
my iPhone too
for I am an Instagram addict!
I love capturing snippets of my daily life
and seeing what others are doing too!
It is a way to keep us all connected.
I can always find inspiration there.

So yes to my favorite place
MY CAMERA
She is my friend, companion and teacher.
 She has taught me to look at life
so differently now!
I have learned so much along the way.
I can't wait to see what comes next!

  3. Donna, I love this post. I guess because I feel so much the same way...My camera has become my closest friend..When we first met, this wasn't the case for either of us. Isn't it amazing how cameras have become such an important part of our lives.....
    Hugs to you sweet girl....
