Photographs: A Gateway to Awareness and Practice

When we view a photograph, we can experience a specific aspect of this natural world at that exact moment in time.

• Perhaps that is why we say we want to “capture” the scene—so that we may hold it close whenever we choose.
• This helps us to remember that we are extensions of this planet, made of the same elements that exist in this world.

When I look through the lens of my camera, I focus, consciously, on coming into union with the subjects—and on some level, I become part of the same Field that they express.

• When I can do that, I am in an active state of empathy, fully present, experiencing that time and place from a viewpoint that is beyond my usual, more limited perceptions.
• I feel a deep sense of connection with something larger than myself.

In that space, I am able to see myself as both a representative and reflection of this extraordinary natural world, with the capacity for sharing its experience.

I can resonate with this planet, and the photograph becomes the ambassador for understanding, valuing and deeply caring for this world.
