A lover of blur shoots a saguaro!

My photography resolution for 2022 is to get more creative- I have lost my mojo! In fact I volunteered to give a presentation to one of my photography groups on “Create Photography Abstracts Wherever You Are”- in order to make ME go out and find SOMETHING I haven’t shot before. I have had a lot of trouble in the last few months finding photo subjects, so I needed a kick in the pants to force me to get more creative.
