hello again
it's been two weeks since our last update. but who's counting?
i was shooting a wedding a few weeks back and my camera died in the middle of action. talk about cool under pressure. it's now on its merry way to the factory for a check up.
the next week as i was packing to head to philly, i decided i would leave my other camera behind. such a rarity for me, being without a camera. but what the hell was i going to do with photos when i barely had time to tie my shoes.
so it sat at home...
i remember one morning, as we drove along kelly drive, which is this pretty spectacular meander through philly's woods and along one of its rivers. the sun was taking a healthy stroll through morning and i had rolled the window a little to let in the air. it was crisp and quite perfect. i don't normally like the cold, but somehow, the breeze reminded me of childhood and elementary school and warm coffee cake.
we rolled through traffic and past construction. up ahead, the river bent a corner and a bridge stood knee deep in its waters. my mind wandered as the sun glinted off the river, a faraway mist slowly drifting past the bridge. i thought about taking a picture, then realized all i had was my phone.
as we passed, i took a thousand pictures in my mind. click click click i went... goodbye river, goodbye childhood! i'll be visiting you again when a sparkle of sunshine reminds me of a river in philadelphia, or when the scent of summer takes me back to swinging in the park.
