A Walkabout of Perspective

This evening TJ and I took a walk in our neighborhood, cameras in hand.  He is working on a project that requires certain images, and I needed my photo of the day.  

As I was deciding on what would be my inspiration,  I began to enter into a zone.  This is something that I have always been able to enter when I take time with just me and my camera.  It is a zone where I am able to look past what is around me and find beauty.  I kept hearing the word perspective over and over in my mind.  I prayed that the Lord that I would continually be able to see things with a different perspective and always be able to find the good, beauty, and joy in any situation.  

It was only a 20 or 30 minute walk, but I felt like it was a photo walkabout.  A walkabout to help strengthen my perspective.  These are areas right around my house, yet I feel as if I captured images that were from other places.  It was a beautiful way to end my day, and my weekend.  

Here is an example of how you can take a photo and make it feel different just by changing your perspective.  Below is what the surroundings really looked like.
Anyone remember 'Honey I Shrunk the Kids'?
