Uh oh, a photography thread? Don't get me started... :twisted:
My visual sketchbook is on Flickr here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/iamskye/
Some overtly Buddhist examples from various trips to Taiwan:
I'm finding a great deal in common between Zen practice and candid street photography. It is a very meditative state on the street, a weird calm balance between openness to your surroundings, what you want to express, technical considerations, and luck. A weird meeting of analytic and synthetic - which you have to both hold, but not too tight. At some point I may write something up on the topic.
And then other times, I just like taking pictures of "things"
Anyway, I could go on... and on... and on... photography and Buddhism are my main kicks these days!!

went to do the dishes lastnight, set the water to run, gathered up some stray coffee cups and came back, found these... had to take a pic of it.
(click to enlarge - i know its kinda big but look closely @ the little bubbles)

These were some pictures I took about three weeks ago in Stephens State Park, which is near my home in the mountains of northern New Jersey. My kids and I hike around here every Sunday afternoon. Probably nothing like what people picture when they think of NJ, but this is home...
(The pic I use for my avatar was taken by my 5 year old the same day, in a sort of wigwam someone had built near one of the less used trails.)

"Felix", a neglected neighborhood cat and a regular dinner guest in the little bar around the block. He’s a rather grumpy old fellow. Guests are advised to enter carefully as he likes to take a nap on the doormat.Leave a comment:

my digital camera displayed its impermanence a month a go and im still waiting for it to return from repairs, so here is a few I've had sitting on the hard drive here @ work.
a wonderful snow storm from a couple years ago
Same storm, with Artemisia chillin' on the window sill
Families cottage this past summer, a nifty sunset.

interested take a photo at that day, at that time, wherever they are, whatever they are doing, then post it? Like a dharma moment in all our lives just to see what that "same" instant looks like through our varying facets of the jewel.
That sounds like a very interesting experiment... throw a dart at a calendar and let us know the date/time you come up with... maybe start a new thread for this and repeat every so often....
Gassho,
