This is a great one, Connie. I think you captured the photographer's view way better than I did. I sort of got carried away with the adventure of my travells. Anyway, I hope this poem does well for you in the contest. Have a great Christmas.

Isaiah thank you for your kind comment. I'm a painter, an artist, and I've done a of photographing for fun. So this poem I was able to use my knowledge of creating art through a lens. It was the adventure and looking through the lens in which I thought you captured both very well. I think your's is right up there for a win. Ditto for the holiday. Warm smile, Connie

It's from the contest 'Viewing Life Through A Lens'. A choice of photos were given to write about. I couldn't figure out how to download the photo I chose. You can see it at the contest site. Thanks for your comment.

Thank you for your comment. This poem is for the contest 'Viewing Life Through A Lens '. Was I suppose to download the photo that the contest chose? And If so, I do not know how to down load it.
