Finding the Openings in the Fog – Picture to Ponder- v6-issue4 – Clear Spot in the Window

by Sheila Finkelstein on January 27, 2010

Yesterday morning, in relatively warm Florida, as I was writing my “Morning Pages” – (Julia Cameron, THE ARTIST’S WAY) – I looked out onto my patio and noticed almost complete fog on the upper windows above the sliding ones that comprise my outside “wall.” And then I saw the one bright opening.

Given it was the first night of my Through and From the Lens Point and Shoot Photo Course, where we will be spending four weeks taking photos of whatever catches our eye, I naturally went for my camera when I finished writing.

From a different point of view the opening was not quite as bright.

The very top, “header” photo was a closer-up of the above photo.
I included it here because I like the “mystical” feel of it.

Self-Reflecting Queries –
Are there places in your life where things appear misty, fogged up?

If so, will you look to find the bright spot(s)? How will you recognize them?

What happens when you shift your perspective? Does evening out, leveling the density, create a different feeling? If so, how does this empower you?
