Behind the lens

​

The invention of camera phones transformed the world into a population of millions upon millions of photographers.

​

Within this sea of photos, I lost my love of taking photos. I still appreciated that we had more amazing photos being taken, but in the 'olden days', we had a limited number of photos and far fewer interested photographers.

​

This meant you could take a photo, without turning round to see a queue behind you waiting to take the same one.

​

Lately the love seems to have returned and a realisation that the enjoyment comes from within. Seeing the world through a different lens when on a walk with camera in hand; experiencing the joy of knowing it was a special moment captured.

 

Rather than sitting as files on my computer I have put them on this site to share but also so that I feel relief that they are not needing to be sorted.

Same goes for the writing, just sitting in files so better here than there!

​

I hope it brings some enjoyment or a smile.
