If today were a fish I'd throw it back

Daily Snap-


This week I was invited to join the MCP Project 52 as a Team Leader. I'm really excited to give back to a wonderful community of photographers, helping moderate the group and being a guest blogger on the MCP Actions Blog. Thank you Jodie and the MCP Project 52 Team this is going to be a great year of wonderful photographs!


Today's daily snap photograph is also my picture for this week's MCP Project 52. The weather has not been cooperating with my ideas for this week's theme of soothing repetition. I finally realized that I had something in front of me all week. I love my koi tank because of the soothing repetitive sounds of the bubbles and the water going back into the tank. I love watching them because after I always feel so peaceful. Make sure to go leave some flickr love for the photographer's doing the MCP Project 52.

Okinawa Photographer - Daily Snaps- shades of grey

The Storm

"...Along the sea-wall, a steady sloshing of the swell,

The waves not yet high, but even,

Coming closer and closer upon each other;

A fine fume of rain driving in from the sea,

Riddling the sand, like a wide spray of buckshot,

The wind from the sea the wind from the mountain contending,

Flickering the foam from the whitecaps straight upward into the darkness..."

- Theodore Roethke

Daily Snaps

This daily snap photograph is also my picture for this week's MCP's Project 52. This week's theme is shades of grey. My goal for this was not to convert my digital image from color to black and white. I wanted to represent shades of grey as if you were there to witness it for yourself. This picture was taken from the top of  Nago Central Park over looking the breathtaking views of the East China Sea. Nago Central Park is located near the city center and hosts the Nago City Cherry Blossom Festival one of the biggest in Okinawa. 

Make sure to schedule your cherry blossom photography session with Rising Sun Memories! For more details go HERE
