Feel, Touch, Love
Have you ever taken a picture and then looked at it on your device and thought - “that is not what it felt like when I looked at it”? The reason you were likely drawn to wanting to take the picture, was because the scene emoted something for you. It called you, caught your eye and stirred something in you that said - “I want to preserve this slice in time, forever”. Then you look at it and you’re disappointed. There is some dissonance between what you recall of that moment and what you’re looking at on your screen. This is one of the reasons I love to edit my photos shortly after taking them. This way I can make sure to stay true to what I remember of that moment.

The Safety Plan
It was a stormy and rainy first weekend in June. The rain pounded on the roof and hammered the large front window. The wind howled fiercely outside. The beating rain and the erratic whipping of trees, limbs and the surf of the lake, gave them the sensation of being out to sea. The noise of the storm sometimes jolted them and sparked a tinge of panic. But they continued to remind themselves, THEY WERE SAFE…..it was just the storm. This was, after all, part of the healing process. Seth did not like loud noises and was fearful of the dark. Darkness would arrive in a few hours. It would take some reassurance and encouragement to keep Seth calm and invested in the project.
