Memories

I have been recently sorting through the many pictures I have taken over the past number of years.   I always find it amazing how a simple picture can bring back so many fond memories.  Memories of places, smells, voices, feelings and especially people.  It seems that every one of our senses and even our emotions are mingled in our memories.  The blisteringly cold night on the edge of the mountain.  The smell of the salty air breeze slamming against the rugged shore.  The sound of the wolf crying to the bright moon.  You get the idea of the power of pictures in memory.  It can be tough and even bothersome to take the time to get some  great pictures, especially on vacations, but as I slowly mature and experience more of life I find it is always worth every moment.  Remember take lots of pictures and share them with friends there is no excuses now with digital.
