I have officially got back into taking photographs, after a too long hiatus.
It amazes me that I've been on Flickr ever since I first started High school and now next year, I'll be graduating from College!
Throughout the past couple years, it has been a true journey.. of which I'm blessed that I was able to capture and share with the community here.
I've become friends with so many wonderful, compassionate & inspiring people.. that have made a great difference in my life through their art and support.
I can't even begin to find the words to express my gratitude of the kindness that I've seen reflected from people on this site.
I was trapped in a dark melancholic state of mind when I first joined Flickr 4 years ago, which was my sole inspiration behind taking photographs in the first place.
The encouragement I recieved from people here, as well as being able to introspect regarding how other photographers chose to show their feelings, is ultimately what has made me grow as a person & an artist.
Thank you for giving me hope and staying with me on this journey..
We still have 'a long way to go' :)
