More quotes for you

"At a certain point, I just felt, you know, God is not looking for alms, God is looking for action."

"The world is more malleable than you think and it's waiting for you to hammer it into shape."

All of the above quotes are from Bono of U2. What a great band! I smell a photo essay coming on here...anyone want to participate? We could submit this to JPG magazine and/or I know of a few galleries that would be interested, too. Oh the possibilities here AND the truth behind quote number 4 for me! I am so excited!

Some inspiration for postcards and Project 365

Here is a link to the dear ada blog that I love so much. It is for everything that is labeled "photo love" on her blog. Check it out and start taking pictures! This is one of those blogs that I go to when I need some inspiration or just some art to look at and think about.

Another fabulous idea to spread some love!

I love this idea, too. We could get stuff like this printed or buy the ones from their Etsy shop. We could even do birthday cards, we miss you cards.....such a long list of possibilities here!

What a wonderful idea!

Check this out. I love it! What better way to spread the love than with some free eye candy. Anyone want to participate? I know I do. We can submit things to Indie Fix AND do this on our blog, too. Love it!

Another notable quote

"I tell you, the more I think, the more I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people." Vincent Van Gogh

Made me think! What do you think?

Update on the philanthropy project

So I spoke to a few people at church who LOVED the postcard idea. So get your cameras charged, your pencils sharpened or your paint poured 'cause we're making postcards. I am so excited about this for some reason and I hope you are, too!

Let's send flowers and cookies and warm fuzzies

So our first fun philanthropic project will be creating cards and/or postcards to send to shut-ins or whoever needs a piece of good mail. Here is some inspiration to get us started. I will look into printing costs and such. So, ladies, grab your cameras, start clicking and taking pictures of cool things! Anything! You could also draw, paint, whatever and I am willing to scan in the images to print onto cards. Have fun and let's make somebody's day a little bit brighter. I have the perfect person in mind to be the first recipient!

Update: check out this website for cool photo stuff!
