It’s obvious that it’s been a long time since I set up this Photography and Transformation blog and made my first and only post, thus far. A comment on my Picture to Ponder blog – Picture to Ponder blog – and a desire for further conversation. This one is the ideal place to have the conversation, quite relevant also to the fact that getting the right format and template here has been like a wall for me.
Picture to Ponder, as you will learn when you follow along here and in future posts, is a photo ezine delivered by email. In a recent issue I featured the following two photographs
and continued with my “Self-Reflecting Queries”. In describing my response to the photos, I discussed completion and in queries I talked about unfinished business and also about hiding out, being afraid of sharing passions.
Jenn Givler, Create a Thriving Business made the following comment on the Picture to Ponder blog
“In the first photo – the purple and white flower reminded me of a dancer… I don’t quite know why it struck me that way, but it did. I’m a dancer – so I’m sure that had something to do with it LOL!
But the emotion that was inspired in me was that sometimes we need to flow.
Sometimes if something is unfinished, it’s because the energy isn’t quite right – and what is called for is a little flow. Flow through it for a bit instead of pushing against it and see what develops – no photography pun intended ;)”
I responded with, “Your statement – ‘…a little flow. Flow through it for a bit instead of pushing against it and see what develops – no photography pun intended 😉 has been taking me a while to absorb.
It may be that in the imagery of “being up against it”, I can’t visualize “flowing through”. It’s like “How can you flow through a wall?” One certainly can shift, flow around. “Flowing through” conjures up the image of a ghost for me.
Simply some thoughts. If you’d like I’ll put it up on the blog to further conversation.”
In a responding email, Jenn said she’d love to open this up for conversation. Would you care to join in? Jenn, the ball is back in your court and thanks for being the stimulus that finally had me get off the procrastination pedestal!
