One Word Wednesday ~ Passion


the desire

started 
over 30 years ago
with my first SLR
a Pentax K1000
 and a photography class

the fire 

began burning
earlier this year
when Nik entered my life
and finally

the passion

for photography
wrapped its arms around me
and caressed my soul

  1. Man, how sad is it that I can't think of something I am super passionate about? I do like judging celebrities a lot.

  4. My true passion is being covered in dirt and surrounded by plants - nothing is more satisfying than creating gardens!

  5. I am now developing a relationship with a camera ~ it's my daughter's digital camera, but just seeing the world around me from the vantage of point of capturing it in a beautiful way is new and exciting to me right now.

    I've been so inspired by the many women doing this so brilliantly in their own blog sites, I now desire to enrich my own words with pictures I've taken myself.

    So, thank you for sharing your passion as you do - for it is likely making a difference in the lives of people in ways you do not imagine!

  7. Oh yes! You took the words right out of my mouth! I've been spending this past year growing more and more in love with my Nikon and more passionate with photography too! Just ask my kids. : )

    Great picture too -- I've got a k1000 tucked away in my hall closet too. And it has an awesome macro lens that I can't use with my d90. : (

  9. Great post! I remember as a child hauling my dads huge canon around in a case with all of it's lenses. I knew how to work that thing better than he did! I have just re-kindled my passion for photography in the last couple of years. Can't figure out why I took such a long break :)

  10. Amy ~ for me it's because of digital photography ~ now everything is in the photographer's hands.

  11. I gather the K1000 is an antique now?
    I get passionate about science and technology at times but everyone is different regarding levels of passion.

  15. Jillsy, thank you for your One Word Wednesdays that force me to think, instead of just pour stuff out of my head. I'm grateful your passion is photography because it has helped re-kindle my own photography passion. Thank you!!
