GLAD I'M NOT "NORMAL"

Today I observed the difference between photographers and “normal” people. On my morning walk with two friends there was a small break in the clouds, beautiful rays, it was magnificent. I mentioned it to them, they looked up for a moment and kept walking and talking. I rushed home, got my camera and headed out to take a photo…
my camera said “battery exhausted” and by that time so was I! Anyway, I missed the moment….this is all I got, but I did see,
appreciated and enjoyed the splendor of the moment, so I’m so grateful I’m not “normal”! I wish I could have captured it for you, too.

Lovely sky, Petesie. I know what you mean---I see a photo in everything and my friends say "un huh" and keep on going. I even see photo ops in things on television--I think it's called photo addiction.

Many thanks for the sentiment--and I know what you mean. One of the benefits of a photographer is not only learning to see--but also appreciating what is there to see. Wonderful cloudscape, even if without the rays. :)
