STATUS QUOte – Photography – 20170127


Photography Quote

Bird on Fountain at Casa de San Pedro Bed & Breakfast:, Hereford, Arizona - by J. Ross

 

 

“Photographers do this for a living, every single day — they point their lenses toward every single corner of our world and somehow make the mundane mesmerizing through their artistic eye. It’s all a matter of being aware of your surroundings and realizing that there are some really amazing and interesting things to look at, even if it may just be something so simple as a wall being covered up by paint.”
– Ward Jenkins –

**********
The STATUS QUOtes Story

I have always appreciated how thinkers, writers and philosophers are able to gather groups of words to express a thought in a poignant, witty or thought-provoking way. Years ago I began to collect quotes that I thought were especially inspirational, humorous or moving. From time-to-time, I would repeat a quote in an appropriate moment and as the topic of quotes arose, people would ask me to share some of them.

This is how STATUS QUOtes was born. I now try to post four quotes every day. I attempt not to repeat any quotes although some have made their way on to the board a number of times. I also try to avoid focusing on one philosopher, writer, etc. Each day I try to select a variety of witicisms that will appeal to a broad spectrum of readers which reflect an age group from teenagers through senior citizens.

STATUS QUOtes will continue as long as I am able to gather enough new expressions to fulfill my mission of providing inspiration and enjoyment to others.
