Fine Art Nature Photography by RebeccaBarray on Etsy

Hello!

I opened up an Etsy store with some of my photography. I started with 10 of my favorite images, available in 18×12 poster size print, 8×10 photo print, 11×14 canvas, and a set of 20 5×7 flat cards with envelopes. Go check it out. If there’s an image of mine that you’d like to buy, but don’t see it there on Etsy, just let me know and I can add it. Thanks for your support!!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Unique

February 4, 2013September 25, 2014 / Becca / 11 Comments

Unique

I like to think I’m quite unique.

I used to do scientific research. I was thinking and coming up with ideas that, possibly, no one else had thought of. I felt like I was making a contribution to the world that no one else could duplicate, because no one thought exactly the same way as I did or looked at problems in exactly the same way. That made me fairly unique.

Now, I’m a stay at home mom. I spend my days with two toddlers that I brought into this world. With their specific combination of DNA, some from me and some from my husband, they are definitely one of a kind. And I’m the only one in the world that could make them exactly what they are. That makes me especially unique.

And a photographer. I like to think that I can take my camera and capture a perfectly unique image. I can look through my viewfinder and see things in a way that, maybe, no one else would think to choose. Or maybe I can pick up my camera and capture a moment in time that no one else in the world could possibly have seen it if I hadn’t snapped a photo. That makes me somewhat unique.

And a writer. When I sit down and write, which is not as often as I’d like, I put words together in a way that is uniquely my own. A million people in the world could sit down and write about the exact same topic and not use the exact combination of words that I can. That certainly makes me rather unique.

But it’s all these things together (biologist, mother, photographer, and writer) that make me the absolutely unique person sitting at my computer, typing these words right now.

How do you define yourself? What makes you unique? I’d love to know.

Love and Photo Fun,

Becca ♥

This is my favorite place to sit and read. And it has a great view. ♥

It needs more pillows and cushions though.

This is pretty good timing. I just participated in the Scott Kelby Annual Worldwide Photowalk on October 13. Here are 10 photos I took while walking around downtown Huntington, WV, last Saturday.

This is a huge tree out in my yard. We used a rope and an old tire to make a swing. The kids love it!
