Where I Stand Sunday

Oh - faithful companion - look out onto the world.
Assess if it's safe..assess if it's wild.
Your keen senses tell beyond what I comprehend.
What scents are on the wind, what sounds are on the rise?
Be forever watchful, be forever wise.

Where I Stand Sunday is an ongoing photo essay examining the different places I spend my life standing. Too often we take for granted the everyday places we spend our lives walking on. The ground we tread on has its own stories to tell. If you would like to also post this subject, please let me know. There are several of us (see my sidebar) and we would love to add your blog to our list.
Be sure to check out my "sketch" blog here.
