Wonderful Meetings...

It's so strange how things work sometimes. I had an appointment to meet up with a photo group to discuss blogging. Since I'd just started this blog about a week ago, I figured I may be able to learn something new. The content included the things I knew already but I was able to help a few others out. The organizer of this meet had been blogging for over 5 years, and I have to say she was very interesting. She had only been doing photography for 3 years but was already had a photography business! It's incredible how digital photography has brought so many different medias together. I was a tiny bit jealous. I have had this passion for photography for over 10 years and I have never even enlarged a picture of my own and hung it in my home! I never felt anyone would want to see the photography I shot, so I never printed it. I want to make photography a larger part of my daily life but I've been concerned about that taking away time from my family. I was given some wonderful suggestions on how to include my passions in to my daily life without taking the focus off my family. It sounds so silly to say but I think finding the right photographers to surround myself with can only make me a better photographer. It's not about comparing my skills to theirs, it's about learning from each other and enhancing each others knowledge. - Thank you Beth for the chat today. It was very eye opening. :)
