tranquility

I've taken these photos a while ago, maybe its the mood I've been in recently but they called out to me so I started to sell them on Etsy (photo 158 and 159).  They are calm and quiet... meditative in their own way. 
The photo of the wooden platform creates a place for thought.  If a photo made noise this one would be silent.









This photo titled "mountains" is the first photo that I'm selling that has a human figure in it.  I took it because of the apparent solitude of both Mt. Rainier and the man.  This photo has a lot more contrast in it than my usual style.

Two more sales!

Someone up there is looking out for me.  I was really feeling bad about my photos, even to the point of re-strategizing and looking elsewhere than Etsy to market my photos.  Staying on Etsy to sell my watercolors... one day I'll post them... when I feel comfortable with them. 
Anyways... thank you Wendy for the purchases!  I am again re-inspired to continuw with my photography knowing that there are people like you that appreciate my photographs!  
The two that were bought are two that I really like.  They were taken on the same day when I had time alone in NYC to walk around at my own pace for the whole day. 

Brooklyn Bridge - there are alot of photos oof the bridge but I tried to give it some soul:

yay!!! I made a sale today on Etsy!

For most people selling their wares on Etsy a sale might not be a big deal but this is my third sale on Etsy and I am estatic!!! Woohooo! doing the snoopy dance!  It makes me want to keep taking photos!

I was seriously feeling pretty down about my sales, which affects how I take photos.

"passage" is the first photo I took with my Canon D60 camera, and it's still one of my favorite photos!  It's also my first blog entry here.








Thank you SO much for purchasing my print Sherry! You've reinspired me to go out and work on more photographs.  "passage" will be on its way to you very soon! XO
