Scrolling Through Highs and Lows

The power of photographs is amazing.

They take us places – places we’ve been and wish we could go.

Invoke feelings – feelings we cherished enough to capture using this medium.

They help us recall experiences and people.

They spark memories that we’d consider highs and lows in life.

I know, those are pretty obvious statements – not revelations at all; but I was recently scrolling through the Camera Roll on my iPhone and traveled, felt, recalled, and remembered some recent highs & lows:

  • A ton of “set-up” shots for Facebook & Twitter statuses
  • A relaxing anniversary trip to Monterey
  • A great time of worship at the first Evening of Worship event we did at church.
  • Various pictures of our pup.
  • A fun Halloween trip to Disneyland
  • A quick trip to San Diego.
  • Various shots from Montana where we attended my dad and step-mom’s memorial service.
  • A cold, holiday trip to San Francisco with some great friends.
  • Various pictures of my family.
  • A photo of my dad’s belt buckle.
  • Various candid and not-so-candid shots of time spent with friends – some embarrassing, some not.
  • A trip to New Orleans
  • Several attempts at being “artsy” – like the one above.
