My first memories of kudzu were along Highway 45. Sitting in the back of my mother's station wagon on a trip to the big city I would watch as this sea of green had taken rule over acres of land. Until my Dad told me otherwise, I loved it.
Later I learned that it had been brought here to eliminate erosion and, although it kept the dirt in place, it didn't allow much else to stick around. So maybe some of my first lessons of delving past what I saw with my eyes began with this plant. What I still know today is that all of my greatest lessons were learned early and involved nature.
Great pic on the power of the plant, Scott.
We need a code word that says in some sweet way, "You're being way too obnoxious now, Susan."
This is an experimental project. My goal is to post a single picture each day during 2007. My hopes are that it will force me to improve my photography skills and technique and to more actively notice and, on occasion, interact with the world around me.
The rules are simple, I have to have taken the picture on the day it was posted for. Generally, I will try to post a picture on the same day that I take it. But there will probably be times when that is not possible.
If you have questions or comments, please feel free to leave me a comment.
For anyone who may be interested, prints are available. If interested, please contact me and let me know what sort of print you'd like (framed or not, what size you'd like, etc) and I will get back to you as soon as possible with a price and to iron out the details. I'm not yet looking to make a living off of my art so prices will mostly just be to cover my costs.
