Seasonal changes alter the landscape,
deep greens give over to vibrant amber,
flaming reds and oranges, and cold…
A photographer alters the light, shifts
the focus, tempers the colour and
perfects the image’s final delivery.
In the same way, I look within, search for the beauty,
adjust flaws, accept what I cannot change, and strive
for meaning, a purpose that inspires, authenticity.
At the very least, I hope to create something
that has lasting appeal, and hopefully, if only
for a moment – makes a difference….
(Lens-Artists Photo Challenge is change and/or changeable. The original photo (featured) is of a lake in Nanaimo, British Columbia.)
And I like the way you explored change with the examples and then the pics
