It all started out when Friend Bob and I were talking about BE STILL and SEE Photography and how it resonates with us. "Let's start a group and see who comes?" First meeting three months ago brought over 20 curious photographers. In the next few months, there has been a solid core of unique divergent individuals who continue to come together, explore and have FUN together.
Friend Bob sparked Emma's interest when he sent out a link about photographing hands. Emma said that sounded 'cool'. So we suggested that we needed to play with that at one of our next meetings. Then Friend David suggested that it was fun to take pictures of all kinds of body parts - well those that are external, easily visible and tasteful, of course!! Today we met and brought our cameras to see what we could see.
Hands...feet...eyes...noses...ears...earrings...shoes...the world was wide open and we laughed a lot at what we were all doing. Our little kids were definitely playing and that was GREAT!!
I sat and watched everyone, seeing how I could best "SEE" them. I knew it was their eyes - and after all - isn't that one of the ways that BE STILL happens? We look with a clear vision and an open heart! It was fun to put the pictures together and create our group. Today we decided to continue - to present challenges to one another and to learn and grow and create with one another!
It's a great thing to bring together a group of very different people with a common interest - in this case photography in many of its variations - and watch how the group evolves.
