photography, this moment

A Friday ritual. A single photo, no words, capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

“This Moment” is a ritual found on Life inspired by the Wee Man adopted from SouleMama which was introduced to me by Sarah-Jane, of Samuel Michaels Photography. If you find yourself touched by a moment and would like to participate, post your picture on a Friday and leave your link in the comments section.

    Loving the treatment of this – the colors, the spontaneity, the obvious warmth in the ‘room’ – done so exquisitely, Linda!

    Beautiful, as only those who know how to really dance with their souls can understand.

    Truly delightful to the senses Linda… your image is very engaging! I love the colors that I see,the movement, I wonder what music they’re playing, what smell there could be in that room…and most of all, I love the contact human touch makes

    Awesome

    The colors in this are fantastic! And, I love the Nietzsche quote. Never heard that before, but those sound like words to live by! Who cares if people can’t hear my music. I will dance.

    Hello Linda.
    I am playing catch-up.

    Ahhh…dancing…one of my favorite pastimes and something I do to start my day everyday.
    Love the treatment you applied to this…it’s almost like a vintage photo…a feast for the senses. I didn’t know the quote, but how true & fitting for the photo. If I’m not mistaken, are you the dancing partner on the left too? Wonderful moment. Thanks for sharing.
