Day 4 of my #fivedayquest , thanks to +Elizabeth Hahn
5 days / 5 photos / tag a new person each day to join
1 photo for 5 days of your daily life.
I am blessed to live in a rural community, with a short 2-minute drive (or 10-minute walk) to my office on a small college campus.
As a teacher, I end up doing a lot of work at home (grading, lecture prep, etc.)… and this is my "home-office".
I love my backyard Redwood tree… with scrub jays and squirrels at play, humming birds feeding, along with the occasional family of deer meandering by… we've even had a coyote take a nap at the edge of the yard, and just yesterday a cute red fox was exploring around in the brush beyond the tree.
Of course I get focused on the computer screen for hours at a time…but the occasional pause to look at the beauty in the back yard always lifts my spirits.
+Ron Clifford once challenged me to get out and shoot something from every possible angle until that something got tired of being shot at….and I did that with this tree…and found some really cool new ways to view it…
+Colby Brown once wrote that if you can't find inspiration in your back yard, you're not trying hard enough and I think that's true even if you don't have a big Redwood tree. Just keep an eye open for the interesting things all around… take a look from a new perspective once in a while…not just in your photography, but in all that you do.
For this fourth day of the five day quest, I tag +Joe Frazee. Joe, you are under absolutely no pressure to do the fivedayquest, but if you want to, you can! Just post a photo of daily life for five days. :-)
