This week’s motivation comes from the fact that we are in a national adoption magazine, Lindsey is on the cover, Jamie wrote the article and I made the cover photograph.

If you want to read my thoughts on adopting please read my post “Man’s View of Adopting” from about two years ago.

Today’s motivation photograph was made while I was on a mission trip in the Dominican Republic. The light on the tree came from building were we held our daily worship service.

Try something different, like night photography with a slow shutter speed.

Today’s motivation photograph is a nice ring shot from one of our weddings. I love the color of the blossoms and the “bling” of the beautiful rings. It was tricky getting the rings to balance on the limb because of the breeze, but I do love a challenge.

More images from the wedding are over at Worley Arts Photography

I have had many dogs over the years and all have provided some type of entertainment for me. But Lacy has more facial expressions then any dog that I have every known. She can be very difficult to photograph at times, she seems to know when a camera is pointed in her direction and immediately looks the other way. Trying to get photos of her is one way she keeps me motivated.

If Lacy could talk what do you think she would be say to me in this photograph?

This weekend Daylight Savings Time started. I’m not sure how much I like the whole losing an hour of sleep part of it, but I enjoy that signs of spring are popping up all around.

This week’s motivation comes form the spring type weather we have been having and the chance to get out and enjoy the day, with a camera in hand of course.

Have a great day, get outside and enjoy.
