Reflections

I’ve been trying to become more creative over the past few weeks. I had started to notice that my photographs were starting to look the same, so I decided that it was time to open my eyes and renew my photos.

While at a carnival on our vacation, I noticed that a puddle from a recent rain shower provided a great view of the ferris wheel.

How many times do we catch ourselves trying to take as many

photos as we can, only to miss a great one

because we didn’t take our time. This photo is a perfect example. As I took this one, a large group of people were walking by on their way to the next ride. This small unnoticeable puddle provided an awesome opportunity to take a great photo.

If I could share one helpful tip that I have learned, it is to slow down and notice what is around you. Normally we would walk by puddles like this, but creative photos abound if we are willing to look for them.
