Life through my lens

Springtime has come and gone and summer is about to do the very same. As the years seem to roll by faster and faster with each new year, I look back on 2020 as one that will not be forgotten. These majestic old buildings out on the farms seem to be disappearing everyday and I am on a mission to preserve all of them I can thru my photography. I happen to view photography in many ways and some of those are artwork, documentation and also in a sense as time travel for the soul. A photograph can transport you back in time to a very specific moment, now forever frozen. This allows a person to stop time for just that little sliver, go back and study it endlessly, exactly as it was right then. Depending on the moment or occasion that could be very happy, or very tragic. The Hindenburg disaster, the Berlin Wall coming down, 911 photos, just a very few of some historic photos. Think of all the emotions felt viewing pictues of loved ones that have passed. Happy, sad or simply informative, photography plays so many important roles in our lives it hard to imagine a world without pictures. I want to make sure that I help preserve our great rural heritage thru my lens and the way it was the day I happened to be there. I hope to do so tastefully all while channeling a little Bob Ross in my images and how he might look at scene and in my post production. People say how did you get your picture to look like that?? I remind folks that Bob Ross started each of his paintings with a blank canvas, a great free flowing imagination, tools of his trade and a vision of how the world looks thru his eyes. A Bob Ross painting is a moment frozen in time, as he seen it that day and the same goes for my work. Hope you enjoy all that is to come for Bluewater Bound Photography, we welcome you here! Stay tuned....☕📷
