as the Master said:

“You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.”
― Ansel Adams

It is Spring in Tennessee...when an old man's fancy turns to loving the future.

believe in yourself and let no-one put you down true friends will always be there all others will fade away never allow anyone too make you doubt yourself. create with great passion. always follow your dreams. seek out the wisdom of elders. but beware of the fool. give back more than you take. always look for the beautiful things that surround you.so that you will always remember who you are.
