On the same day in October, nearly thirty thousand like-minded people gathered in small groups across the globe.\u00a0 Congregating at coffee shops, bus stops, bagel stands, parks, courthouses, plazas, and train stations, many of us were meeting for the first time.\u00a0 The common thread between us – a love of photography.\u00a0 We amassed as part of the world\u2019s largest Photo Walk<\/a> – a free, global event for creative people to get-together socially and share in one of our passions.<\/p>\n

A key benefit of the walk for me was getting to see my local area in a new perspective.\u00a0 I have lived in Park City, Utah for nearly eight years.\u00a0 Yet, there were things on my walk that I noticed for the very first time.\u00a0 Part of this was due to the expert eyes of others pointing out interesting things and angles, and part owing to my growing interest in and appreciation for all things related to photography.\u00a0 One outcome is that I no longer see things just as a whole entity, but notice them in parts; I notice the details<\/i> \u2013 the hinge on a door, the wheel of a truck, the dew on a leaf, the glint in someone\u2019s eye.\u00a0 Capturing just part of an object can be fun and let the viewer of the photo conjure up the rest.<\/p>\n

I also see photography as storytelling.\u00a0 Great photos are dynamic, they lead the eye, and they show us something \u2013 growth, grandeur, the passage of time, relationships, emotion.\u00a0 Here is a link to some of the amazing images, amateurs through to professionals photographers, took during this year\u2019s Worldwide Photo Walk.<\/a>\u00a0 I have included a variety of my photos below.\u00a0 I am excited to continue to develop my skill and love for photography, and capture a few great photos along the way\u2026<\/p>\n
