That darned weed!

So I've been looking at this weed all winter with it's curly leaves and rich brown color.  I've snapped at it several times with the camera and it just never looks like I see it.  This doesn't happen all that often usually my eye and the camera see alike.  Occasionally that isn't the case.  I'm tempted to climb down the slipper banking and get up close and personal with this plant.  Maybe it just cant be done.  I hate to le a ratty old weed win this game though.
As I've said too many times I'm looking for a few newborns to take pictures of this winter to build the profile so if you know of anyone who would be interested let me know.  Sessions with in a reasonable commute will be free With a $50.00 print package that we can even make your birth announcements with if you want!

Words

So I am going to try my hand at writing.  I'm not good at it, my thoughts are scattered and it makes me hesitant.  My words I don't feel compare to my visions.
However,  I want people to see my work, think of my work have something to associate with when they see my work.  The master behind the art so to speak.  I think my caps lock key sticks.
I have a vision for the art I want to create and I do not think I have set that forth well over the last 6 months, I don't what to be just another person calling themselves a photographer, it really is who I am and how I see the world.  I've been that person for a very long time, but i haven't always wanted to share it.
It's been hiding in the back of my mind and over the last few years using a real camera again I have seen things and captured them, and I think they are worth sharing.  I don't share everything I take allot of pictures and I share very few of them.
Yes I want to take your pictures I want to share what i see with you.  
I'm going to try to be a bit more processey  here.  Try to formulate what I want and what you want.
What to people want.  Do people I know not what family photos?  Do you think you cant afford them or don't have the money to spend on them right now?  I certainly get that!
Have I  mentioned I  love to barter?  It makes me happier then anything really because that's so much more what it is about for me.  I like food , I like hats,  I like you!
I'm babbling!
