Week 5 - Muse

"Muse"
- verb
1. to think or mediate in silence, as on some subject.
2. to gaze meditatively or wonderlingly.

-noun
1. the goddess or the power regarded as inspiring a poet, artist, thinker, or the like.
2. classical mythology, any goddess presiding over a particular art.

These themes keep getting better and better....and I'm always filled with endless ideas....perhaps MCP has become my muse!!!



"Light & Color as my Muse" 


Ever walk in an area and see a ray of light shinning down on something...anything? Light is no doubt a Muse that points you to look in its direction to see what amazing beauty is hiding just beyond. Take this small part of a rocky pile covered in vines and moss....All of a sudden there she (Light) was, basking on the rocks and amazing textures and colors came popping up, calling me to come close and take a picture.

"Travel as my Muse" 



These two photos were taken on our latest weekend explore...where my husband and I jump in the car on a not so early Saturday or Sunday morning (especially after a long and stressful week) and we drive and drive until we reach a new location...either planned or spontaneous...then we get down, look around, enjoy the sites, enjoy each other and take pictures. 

These trips definitely serves inspiration to both of us...it clears all the heaviness left behind by the past week. It opens our eyes to beauty and lifts our spirit...ultimately leaving our minds open to new creative energies....

And, what better place to use the "verb", muse...to gaze meditatively....


"My love as a Muse"


Of course, it sounds like such a typical thing to say but, when you love, it's all the inspiration that you need in life. It is the reason for waking up, for smiling, for creating... both the love that your receive and the love that you give freely.

MCP Project 52 Photo Challenge

This year I have joined several challenges....a crafting challenge...a jewelry challenge... and now I am officially joining a photography challenge. I've actually wanted to come up with a theme for each week and host a challenge myself. However, this has proven to be a difficult task to handle. So instead, I am joining the folks at MCP Project 52. They are currently on week 4...so I am already late. I do want to catch up, though because after scanning through the past themes, I found them quite engaging. So, this blog was created to display my photos and tell you a bit more about why I decided to take them....If you'd like to join in, stop by the website . Anybody can join at anytime!

PATRICIA | OUTDOOR BEAUTY PORTRAIT SESSION

"A warm smile is the universal language of kindness " - William Arthur Ward Most of the times, we want models to have a far away serious pose..it gives the photograph mystery and drama. This model certainly has that down...she is awesome at projecting.... Yet, what I love about shooting her is her smile... it also has that mystery like you just want to know what mischievous plan is she brewing up now... very lovely... Here is Patricia from the Basic modelling workshop on June18, 2016 PATRICIA https://www.facebook.com/369708589743959/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1057573924290752 For Classic Beauty Portrait Sessions, you may send me a message on my facebook page:  https://www.facebook.com/EarthlyVisionz/ Smile and Stay Beautiful...Happy Shooting...
