I kept this post up (and the last one) trying to think of something to say, some way to respond that would capture it. And yet, here I type with no words coming to mind.<br /><br />Your photos inspire me - deeply - to work on my own. Your creative life and parenting with Cowgirl are stunning, and remind me how important my li'l ones are. <br /><br />So...no other words than, "Thank You".Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06491976434541893350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-6488389467616138972010-05-19T11:47:29.967-05:002010-05-19T11:47:29.967-05:00That is great that you love capturing the simple t...That is great that you love capturing the simple things of life, and that you are putting your photographs to good use by creating something meaningful to you.<br />I too enjoy photography and taking snapshots. I am very drawn to nature, and love being at one with all elements and it is my most empowering moment when I am still with all of life, and I see this opportunity as a way to capture something on film and use that to mark the existence of life and what it is saying to me at that moment. I am also using my photographs more and more in other crafts as they are worthy of their presence, and its like the craft comes to life when something is included in it to bring out the beauty of it's existence.<br />Cowgirl sounds like a truly inspirational person and I'm glad you can capture her essence in your photographs. :)<br />Your dangling beauty is amazing, and I have created something similiar incorporating one of my flower pictures and my own quotes at the back. (This is actually one of the goodies that I will give away when I have my 200th Post celebration)<br />Have a blessed week.Trulyanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15630230706604318830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-29616079232701919162010-05-18T16:23:21.246-05:002010-05-18T16:23:21.246-05:00Dear Lis-I love how you are THRIVING, growing and ...Dear Lis-I love how you are THRIVING, growing and BLOOMING in all directions-with your writing, photography and painting (not to mention this beautiful art project of the butterfly). It is so empowering to see you claiming and defining YOU:) I love the pics you posted yesterday. I wrote a really long post about them but my computer was temperamental and not having any of it! I especially love the one of your daughter's hair...and shoes...and the reflection in the glass. You just captured the whole ESSENCE of the weekend...<br />I would love to know more about self portrait photography (as means of self exploration and growth). I wasn't planning on it but am open...can you give me few ideas? Yes...photography is really amazing...It's difficult being a mommy and juggling everything else but I love how you include your daughter in all your creative-NESS and BEING.soraya nulliahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14163510829390285349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-79156664433511173362010-05-18T14:34:28.579-05:002010-05-18T14:34:28.579-05:00I love your photos of Cowgirl, she's absolutel...I love your photos of Cowgirl, she's absolutely a doll. Isn't Motherhood the absolute best?!! That's what my Details post is about too so I could really relate to yours. I especially love what you wrote here. "my camera is empowering me to reach out and embrace my life, to live with my eyes and heart wide open and to be on the look out for the next miracle, the coming gifts and emerging magic." That is exactly how I feel as well.<br /><br />Your Artistic Mother piece is beautiful. I so want to dig into that book after the Flying Lessons class ends. Hopefully I'll be able to find a group working on it around that time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-11383356674508023272010-05-18T03:08:34.291-05:002010-05-18T03:08:34.291-05:00I love your artwork, Lis.

I also found a lot of similarities in your thoughts about photography and how it helps you to be more in the moment and to focus on and cherish the good things (and the quote from Tracy too) and a couple of my own posts from last week - about dandelions, as it happens! Seems we have all been thinking the same thing!<br />Janice.Janice / Dancing with Sunflowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08646734271197959581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-79090831594592442072010-05-18T02:55:36.444-05:002010-05-18T02:55:36.444-05:00The butterfly art piece is wonderful.

Thanks for sharing them.<br />I am finding that photography is one of my major creative outlets. there are so many memes with photography and I take part in just a few.<br />I like your idea of a photo excursion. I do that once in a while - I need to do more of them.<br />Have a great week!Beverley Bairdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12973073253078139054noreply@blogger.com
