I decided to put my photos and pics into a journal, so they're all in one place, rather than maybe clogging up my LJ...that's where I want to keep in touch with people. Plus, I don't want to have to log in & out...so I made a community instead.

My "proper" journal is thru_her_lens :)

The reason why I love photography, is because I think it makes you see beauty in unusual places. To look differently at the world, at people, places, objects and creatures. I am lucky enough to have a camera with me a LOT of the time, so when I see something beautiful, I grab it and store it in not only my mind's eye, but on my PC as well. The reason why I share the photos is not so I can say "Look at me!", but so I can say "Look at this!".

It sounds corny, but I see beauty all over the place, and I want to share that with others. If I manage to capture something really special, then I also tend to be quite happy about it. :) The caveat is, of course, that my idea of beauty is very individual...I certainly don't expect everyone to like everything I do.

And because I'm very lucky, I am actually starting to make a living from my Photography, so please note that all images I post and everything I write within is copyright to Trish Gaunt.
