Collection #3
Mon, August 3, 2009 at 08:00AM "You may wonder, 'How can I leave it all behind if I am just coming back to it? How can I make a new beginning if I simply return to the old?' The answer lies in the return. You will not come back to the 'same old thing.' What you return to has changed because you have changed. Your perceptions will be altered. You will not incorporate into the same body, status, or world you left behind. The river has been flowing while you were gone. Now it does not look like the same river."
~ Steven Foster
We continue from the photo prompts from Collection #2, collecting ideas from the world around us, through photography. The trick is to carry your camera with you so you don't miss a shot.

So go, look, see, and photograph!
"It is part of the photographer's job to see more intensely than most people do. He must have and keep in him something of the receptiveness of the child who looks at the world for the first time or of the traveller who enters a strange country."
~ Bill Brandt
