These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things

FavoriteThings

Macros of roses and close-ups of chil'rens
Rust covered old trucks and decrepit buildins'
Little antique shops laden with blings
These are a few of my favorite things

Black and white moo cows and red pasta noodles
Trampoline jumping and interesting doodles
Loud, messy children who are ever darling
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls and their girlfriends with beaming eyelashes
Snapping their portraits without using flashes
Strangers at sunset and babies in swings
These are a few of my favorite things

During sunrise–
During sunset–
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember to photograph things
And then I don't feel so bad

I was inspired to write this because some days I just don't feel like pulling out the camera and, inevitably, I end up missing something grand.  So, whether it's a point-and-shoot, or a DSLR, or the camera on your phone, try to remember to catch all of your favorite things.

You'll thank yourself later!
