Feel Good Ghosts
New music I am loving…
The Year of Adventure
Each year around New Year, I spend some time looking back on the year thats been and looking ahead to the year to come. It’s a time to be thankful, to remember, and to dream about what could lie ahead… I love the chance to recalibrate, rethink my goals and dreams, and develop some kind of inklings about the year ahead.
As such, welcome to 2012…
The Year of Adventure.
[Music: Set Your Sails by Future of Forestry]
It’s about reclaiming the adventure of the Wild Goose chase,
of following a God who surprises me at every turn,
who barely ever gives away more than the next step,
whom life is never boring with.
I’ll be exploring…
- adventure in God, who is the source of all adventures
- adventure in relationships
- adventure in the playground God created for us to enjoy
- adventure in photography
In practice? I have very few ideas how it’ll look.
I’m going to be doing a lot more camping in Scotland this year, and I’ll be learning to surf. I’ll be embracing analogue photography a lot more, and I’m excited about picking up one of these little toys.
Here’s to a year of adventures big and small.
Here’s to 2012.
She Will Always Be Our Friend
Came across this poster pasted up on a pole in Glasgow city centre a few weeks back, made me chuckle…
Campsie Glen
New Years Day involved a little roadtrip to Loch Katrine, and then to Campsie Glen…
Olivia Hanna
Over Christmas I got to meet my cousins little kiddos for the first time… they are gorgeous kids! Here are a few favourites of three-month-old Olivia.
If you’re interested in having some photographs taken of your kids/ family do get in touch!
Carnival
Photography Inspiration
A few things that have been whetting my appetite lately…
America In Pictures: The Story of Life Magazine (available on BBC iPLayer)
Leslie Dodson on the ethics of journalism and reporting (with special reference to Africa).
This lovely photo essay on wine making.
First Snow
Santa’s Helpers
I am a small child at heart… And so, today, I visited a farm that breeds pedigree cattle, makes ice cream, runs a coffee shop… and has some reindeer.
Guess what my favourite part was?!
The Abundance Of Being
“To be sure, food keeps us alive, but that is only its smallest and most temporary work. Its eternal purpose is to furnish our sensibilities against the day when we shall sit down at the heavenly banquet and see how gracious the Lord is. Nourishment is necessary only for a while; what we shall need forever is taste…
The dinner party is a true proclamation of the abundance of being – a rebuke to the thrifty little idolatries by which we lose sight of the lavish hand that made us.”
[Robert Farrar Capon]
