Take five minutes every Wednesday morning to think outside the box about the things that could be. Use this as an exercise to get out of the head space that you're in....out of the day-to-day routine and to step back and think.
If I only ever post a handful of blog posts in my life, I want this to be one of them because it's one of the most important lessons I've ever learned. Most people don't bother to ask for things they want or even need in life because they assume they are going to be told no. They fear that feeling of rejection or failure. Asking for things will change your life for the better. I have witnessed it firsthand.
In just a few seconds of editing, silhouette photographs can be much bolder and eye catching.

I'm so excited to say that one of my photographs appears on the front of the Best of the Wildwoods Vacation Planner 2021!
This photo was taken at about 6:15am as the sun rose over the ocean in the Wildwoods. While early mornings aren't my specialty generally-speaking, this photo really reminds me that catching a Wildwood sunrise is worth the early alarm clock! I don't know about you, but I wish I could step into this scene right now!

It may even be obvious, but I wish I realized it sooner.
