When I came home from my walk the other day, my camera loaded with new pictures, our house guest said something like, “So your walk isn’t really for exercise, but more for picture taking?”
And my reply went something like this: “I walk to exercise both my body and my soul. On the first round, I go slow and take pictures of anything that interests me. That exercises my soul. On the second round, I just walk, and that exercises my body.”
My soul needs as much exercise (if not more) than my body does, so I take a lot of pictures. Almost everything interests me, even fungus. Here are some of the pictures I’ve taken on my walks.
Can you believe that the second and third pictures are of the same mushroom? And that only a few days elapsed between pictures? (For the record, the third one was taken by Faithful Reader, but at my request.)
Bugs are interesting, too. How do you like these little beauties?
I don’t know why they were just hanging around. Maybe they were dead. Maybe they were tired. Maybe they were dead tired.
I really enjoy the picture-taking part of my walk.
How do you exercise your soul?
