For as long as I can recall our family had been the creative and active kind.  Whether it be music, art, sport, we as kids learnt early that a leaf lying on the ground is not just an ordinary leaf.  It would be special in its own way, by its midrib, its margins, its veins.  Just like people who were all different by fingerprints and genes and their psychological characteristics.   I guess somewhere in between learning to play the piano and express myself through dance, I found an appreciation for art.   And then I was in a relationship with a special soul who’s dad is a world-renowned sculptor.   And my interest in art grew.

So it’s kind of annoying to some friends when I stop in my tracks to take pictures of the expressions found in the world.

Often, I am annoyed myself because … I am travelling mostly by myself, and so am NEVER in the pictures.   

Then again  I wouldn’t like to spoil a beautiful creation with some random ‘selfie’ haha.
