Plenty of these little guys were floating in the wind at the beach as well as begging for food. #seagull #sandpointcitybeach #northidaho #sagleidaho #dailyphoto #dailyphotography #theotherdogfilms #wildlife #animallife
Here is Broden and Lukas. The two spent most of the weekend riding bikes together. I do not remember why Broden was giving Lukas that look, but makes you wonder what he was thinking.

Today's picture is of my nephew Broden. He interviewed me about the pictures I was taking..."does your camera take good pictures or do you have to apply a lot of filters and stuff?" I'm going to paraphrase my reply here, "real photographers don't use filters like glasses and bulgy eyes and such." I showed him a sample. "That camera takes GOOD pictures," was his reply. I tend to think it's the subjects of the photos that take good pictures personally.
Side note: I'm sure the question about filters has nothing to do with his moms use of social media filters.

It has been a few days since I took a picture. It's a lot of fun going outside and hunting for new ways to view the world around me. I liked the shape of this cut off limb with the sunset kissed leaves in the background. #theotherdogfilms #thisisthelife #sagleidaho #dailyphotography #sonyalpha #northidaho #sunsetphotography #trees
I was doing a little Bible study time tonight and was reading 2 Timothy 2:3. It spoke to many things about my life right now, but ultimately it led me to a bit of revelation.
I'm a storyteller and filmmaker and all through film school, and even through virtually every course of the Master's program I'm in currently, the common thread about good storytelling is that having a protagonist make the decisions we want them to make as we watch them on the screen would lead to a very dull and quick movie. Hence the need to watch them fall over themselves in bad choices first, BEFORE making the choice we want to see them make.
Let's take a look at a man, Jesus, who did everything right and his story on Earth was filled with conflict and ended in violence. This is interesting to me and I'm going to consider how I move forward with my storytelling after school. Can a protagonist make the right decisions and how will making those choices affect the supporting characters? If we look at the stories from the Bible, doing the right thing caused a lot of anger and hatred in people which ultimately impacted the "protagonist" Jesus. It certainly hasn't made for a dull story.

Today's picture is all about Lukas. He wanted to cook dinner tonight, so he opted for tacos. For those that feel the need to point out the obvious, let me head you off right here...we know, it's not Tuesday.

Not only does our own sin change our individual perspective, but it alters the way we view others and their sin. Turn your light on!

For as long as I can remember I haven't liked the person I saw staring back at me when I looked in the mirror. It's been a journey to know myself, to understand me. I haven't gotten to the place where I want to be with that yet but I'm determined to get there. I measured my worth based on family, friends, children. I sought to please those around me in hopes that they would see in me what I hoped they would. I wanted so desperately for them to value me as much as I valued them. No matter how many times I was let down by those I put my hopes in, I continued to do what I knew wasn't working, or what was right.
It has been my relationship with God that has brought real truth and hope in my life. It seems like such a no brainer considering I've been a Christian for years, but it was the idols I didn't realize I had in my life that kept me distracted from the One relationship I needed the most. I am more content now than I've ever been thanks to God's hand in my life.

There are plenty of photographers that do close ups on people to capture their character. Here is Hudson, his first close up. What would you say about his character from the picture? #theotherdogfilms #sonyalpha #sagleidaho #dailyphoto #northidaho #hudsonthedog #closeupphotography #closeup #describethecharacter
No, this isn't my truck. I wouldn't drive a Chevy. Or would I? At the very least it makes for a great photo.

Spending some time this evening with some friends from work. Here is a family picture.
I almost forgot to capture today’s photo challenge. The silhouette of a tree against the setting sun as its light bounces off of the cloud cover. It is quite windy in Sagle tonight so this was taken as 1/8000. Today’s focus was contrast. #inspiration #cloud #photography #northidaho #sagleidaho #settingsun #theotherdogfilms #dailyphoto
Since starting my MBA in Creative Writing, I haven’t had a chance to do much personal photography or filmmaking. I did a couple episodes of Dying Breed which I’m grateful for because it got me behind a camera every day, but it was for work, not pleasure. I have committed to myself this week to take a picture of something every day.
Today’s picture focuses on the concept of LINE. I have some caution tape around a patch of ground outside my place.
