So, today I got many great photos at Beyersville SPJST hall and met some awesome people, too. I got my photos down to the Expo Center for the show tomorrow and Saturday. Unfortunately, due to lack of funds and some issues with Fred (my truck) I won't be out on Friday, but I WILL be out Saturday.
I had an interesting conversation with a friend last night who convinced me that, if this is really what I want to do.... I need to do it.
I started asking myself why I do this. It wasn't a question of what purpose it serves so much as it was why I love it, why I am passionate about it.
It's the legacy, the history, the artistry, the brotherhood and fellowship. I love good stories and these folks bring them. I think it's akin to my father being in the Single Action Shooters Society.
As I drove away from the Hall, headed to the Expo Center to drop off my prints, I smiled. The beauty of the Blackland Prairies I now call home with twisting roads filled with gorgeous old cars was a moment of beauty. I (safely) grabbed my phone and snapped the pic you see, giddy that I was able to share even a glimpse of what I saw.
Thanks to everyone who spoke with me today. I look forward to seeing you all again!!
