Jan 2010











Alas, it's almost the end of January! It has been a busy month and I am glad it has gone by quickly. I was able to get out of the cold for a week and visit Rincon, Puerto Rico. Tried some surfing and got to go swimming everyday. It is nice, especially when your only decision is where and what you're going to eat for dinner! And I survived the surfing--although I was sore and I'd like to try it again sometime. This month, I have been catching up on all my stuff-revamping my work, doing my financials and renewing my spirit and taking personal photos.
I walked Herring Cove Beach Thursday in the cold and snow and watched the wind whip the waves into a frenzy! It was definitely different than walking the shores of Rincon! The beach was deserted except for a solitary figure with a metal detector. I hope some treasure was found! For me, the treasure was the ability to enjoy nature and take some artistic photographs. After I go back to the car, I witnessed a flock of seagulls diving for food that a stranger had fed them. It was a cool way to end my walk!
Looking ahead, February brings Valentine's Day, the start of the photo contest and I am teaching some classes at the studio. I entered Tiny Tots to Teens Children's photo Contest (details SOON). I have reserved six Wednesday evenings from 6-8pm starting February 10th. I will be teaching a basic class for point and shoot photographers, (2 classes), a one night Photography skills for Businesses, and a four week class on furthering your photography skills. I am excited to get back to teaching--details coming soon! For more info, email me anewoutlook@mac.com.
Stay warm--
Peace and Joy,
Nancy
