Jim Dollar's Photography and Philosophy
Finding our way to The Way one situation at a time. I don't know how great it will be, but I expect it will be interesting, and I look forward to it going on past all reason because wonder is just that way. Are you coming or not?
It helps if we are easier to please. Lower expectations make a difference. Stepping into the day with a camera and no pictures in mind, ready to find the best compositions available given the light and weather conditions–with no stipulations regarding either lighten’s the days load and gives us a better chance of being happy with the scenes we get. I have worked in the vicinity of people who were finding things not to like about every scene. I was glad to keep my distance.
I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
