Palm justice









Now I welcome you to my new series called "Palm Justice..." My efforts to show your world "Tru My Lens" has taking a turn from hiking to a close up of ordinary objects in our near or far distance and delivered into my palm...Flowers are my main closeup object for this post...We pass flowers and view them from afar, but why not stop and see them close up...I guess this is why I do these shots...I want to share with you what YOU miss as you go about your busy lives...But!...You need to slowdown sometimes and see them closely...The beauty will catch you off guard and maybe change your views of what nature has in store for you...Turn that leaf, smell the fragrance, check the colors....."Tru My Lens" Hopes that day is today, Enjoy!

I stayed away too long...


















Creating interesting views sometimes seems harder when certain views becomes similar...I place these images for your pleasure hoping you will stop and notice things you take for granted..Space, textures, colors etc....During our daily zombie like existence we just don't stop and admire your moment in time..."Tru My Lens" will stop for you and you can start to grasp what your missing may it be small or on a scale you never imagine...   Enjoy.

Looking up...

 Low clouds make me feel that I can touch them...


Hi there...
Li'l on the shady side...

 Overboard on the News choppers...

 Worlds largest transport aircraft looking good...

 Oh, Orion such a warrior...

Really?  Kite challenge...Round 1... Ready... Fight!

Even if I am not hiking on the trails I can still feel the love that surrounds me...Looking up as a pause I can see the labor of love that is right in front of us...Maybe we just need to remember that you really don't have to go very far to see beauty around us..."Tru My Lens" has captured many beautiful people in my life and all I can truly say is that they make my life WHOLE!

I am back!

 The Mickey Mouse mail goes out...


 The sky is the limit..


 Resting in style...


 To go...When ready...


 I really like this place...


 A little glimmer please...


Scary ride?...

Hiking not...But as seen "Tru My Lens" life around us continues to amaze us when we play with the color palates that's available to us... Something as Sunlight shimmering off a few windows of a building or Bus windows...Even the movie trailers that sometimes get's in our way seem to ask to be viewed in another scene....These few examples given should help you see what I see from my day to day travels and what I would like to see really...ENJOY!

What's one's Art is...


















When we see Art...Which could be anything...Why would it be considered Art?... Look around... What would you not considered Art?... It's a fickle dilemma... You make the ultimate decision on what you consider is Art..."Tru My Lens" is here to show you some things I consider could be a form of Art... I consider your opinion fruitful... Enjoy
