To See Fully

Picture taken at Table Rock Mountain

 

One of the first things we ever did in Earthlodge was to go on a fieldtrip. It wasn’t much just a trip from Lakeview to the Gazebo. The interesting part was we were silent and quiet. We did our best to not make sound but also to quiet ourselves and slow ourselves down. It was amazing how much different everything looked, when you really spent the time and effort to look at it.

Lately I’ve been into Photoshop, photo-editing and drawing. It is always amazing how at first an image looks flat, then with more time and effort the image begins to come off the page, then after even more work it bursts into life.I realized that in a way it was similar to what we did. Taking time to bring forth what was there just hard to see.

I tried to show rather than explain in the photo I edited. From left to right the picture shows the steps involved in bringing out the most in the picture. It takes time, and effort, and several tries, but once its done you really see everything it has to offer. So quiet yourself and take the time to see something  fully.
