Healing Photography of the Forest

The Forest is a great place to take photographs and get healed at the same time. Mother nature is good at that way. I started yesterdays session not knowing where to go, as drove places came to mind and changed quickly, so I pulled the car over a sat a spell. It finally came to me after I calmed down and got centered. The place I knew, Timbuctoo NJ.  Timbuctoo is an unincorporated community in Westampton Township, Burlington County, New Jersey, United States. Located along the Rancocas Creek, Timbuctoo was founded by former slaves in 1826.

When I got there I sat on a bench near the pond and waited while the frogs serenaded me. It was a connection process taking place and when the moment appeared, that I felt connected and grounded I hiked off and onto to the red trail.

I found a grove of conferrers that I knew and started shooting, I felt the dog’s eye view worked well at this location, and I found my self laying on the forest floor, it seem like the trees had there arms around me and gave a big hug. I toke a vertical shot… and the rest is history.

Here’s some of the photo’s, enjoy, any feedback is well come.

A great book is “SHINRIN_YOKU” by Oliver Luke Delorie
