I never realized until my Canon was broken and I was without a camera for roughly about two months...

I see life through the lens of a camera.

My biggest regret of a missed moment that I didn't get the chance to capture in a picture was the baby raccoon my brother and I rescued. I wanted to remember it. I hope it's thriving and healthy. (We took it to a shelter where it will be raised with other infant raccoons, in case any of you were concerned.)

It's just such a relief to see something, a moment or a smile and be able to reach in my bag and pull out my camera again.
