It's all in the looking. Most people go about their daily lives not noticing anything but what is in front of them, and sometimes not seeing that. I am always looking at colors, shapes, and composition. When I am riding down the road, anything moving catches my eye. Of course, running into Harold at that exact time was pretty lucky.<br /><br />This is a small town and most people know me so I don't have to do a lot of explaining. In theory, though, if you want to take someone's photo and you ask them and tell them why most people are accommodating. <br /><br />I know a lot of our members are afraid to point a camera at people they don't know. People are just fascinating to me. Everyone has a story to tell and behind that there is another story. And people love to chat about their lives. <br />You can also meet new friends that way.aurbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04234712574405718245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8539155515713685293.post-31118312185835893862009-10-02T07:57:08.334-04:002009-10-02T07:57:08.334-04:00JareLyn: Thanks.
