I often take hundreds of photographs when I am out and about.  And when it comes to the editing stage some stand out more than others.  Sometimes I go back to them a few days or a week later and I discover a different perspective to those that didn’t make the grade the first time.  Maybe it is because I am calmer the second time around. Is life like that too? Sometimes I think it is good to walk away from something and then come back to it.  That way we can settle the emotions, take a deep breath, take time to think. And then, well then, we go back and discover something new,  something more beautiful, or thought provoking.

These are two photographs I almost walked away from. But thank god for that ‘taking a second look’.   They are now amongst my favourites from my recent trip to Cornwall.

Enlightenment happens everywhere we look !
