Collaboration w/big Sis @greyeyez555 "Refresh" Ground soil is tattered Spring's growth green and fresh Dwelling is battered Sun's rays peirce and stretch The old, the new Connect on this plane The past and present One in the same Rotation held steady Restores morns light Regeneration ready Revives earth's life Inhale day's pure air Exhale out slowly Accept one's self care Release doubts wholly Renew, be centered Invigorate the soul Views will be altered Refreshing the world 6-12-2020 Wendy N.

I love capturing images at night, especially iconic architecture like the Space Needle. This was taken the week Seattle got shut down, it was surreal being in the city when it was so vacant. Hopefully soon things can get back to some sort of normalcy and everyone can get back to living their lives. Hope everyone is staying healthy and happy during these weird and crazy times, take care. #bepositive #beexposed #behappy #bgpositivexposure #seattle #spaceneedle #pnw #nightphotography #washington #shotoftheday #instagram #pictureoftheday #architecture #nightphotography (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_X8_IDlEE3/?igshid=hgfml959a8ma

“Rawness Randomly Reflected” Wednesday! (Poem by Wendy Hewlett) I took this image in the summer of 2018 when my wife and I were in Maui for our wedding. I reflect back on that special time and remind myself that life isn’t about making money, buying expensive things, always looking out for yourself first, or any of the things people have evolved to value the most. Life is about loving the people around you, enjoying the beauty of your surroundings, and living everyday to it fullest. It’s easy to lose sight of what’s really important in this day and age, take a break, and come back to basics. Love yourself, love others, and be happy. . . . . #bepositive #beexposed #behappy #bgpositivexposure #beauty #PNW #breathdeeply #photography #nature #justgoshoot #instaphoto #picoftheday #capture #throughthelens #ocean #maui #hawaii #sunset #goldenhour #clouds #paddleboarding #waves #beautiful #poetry #rawnessrandomlyreflected (at Launiupoko Beach Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B93_dMllwj2/?igshid=1qg465jwt2ysx

Natural Green There is so much created by nature that is absolutely mesmerizing and beautiful. It is so easy to overlook and take for granted all the natural beauty that surrounds us on any given day. Take time, pay attention to your surroundings, and you’ll find things that were right in front of you all along. I thought this image was perfect for St.Patricks Day. Hope everyone has a wonderful day. Peace ✌️ and Love ❤️ . . . . #bepositive #beexposed #behappy #bgpositivexposure #beauty #PNW #westcoastisthebestcoast #breathdeeply #photography #nature #justgoshoot #instaphoto #picoftheday #capture #throughthelens #green #greeneyes #stpatricksday #cat #meow #pets #cateyes #love #peace #furryfriends (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B91w_6GFP1S/?igshid=1ac3d5rt66vw4

I captured this image of Seattle from the Bellevue side of Lake Washington on my way home from yoga a few days back. The beauty that is displayed through this photo is a reminder to me that as horrible and out of control everything feel at the moment, we should take a step back and remember the world isn’t falling apart. Take some deep breaths and inhale some fresh air, this simple act can make things feel a lot less chaotic. Come check out the poem by Big Sis Wendy N. on my Facebook page @ https://www.facebook.com/bgpositivexposure/ #bepositive #beexposed #behappy #bgpositivexposure #seattle #skyline #breath #freshair #mountains #coronavirus #beauty #instapic #photography #capture #bellevue #pnw #washington #love #westcoast (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9ss_OUlItx/?igshid=1bg25wg7q0pkk

Frosty Mornings Ever since I can remember I have been mesmerized by the sparkle and shimmer of a frosty morning. It makes the world feel so clean and fresh. The air is crisp and chills the nose, throat, and lungs as a deep breath enters the body. Everything has a different sense of beauty and fragility. It makes me realize that the world can still be an amazing spectacle, without anything else but tiny frozen water droplets that shine in the sunlight. Enjoy the little things in life, it makes the rest of the world seem a little more positive and enjoyable. #bepositive #beexposed #behappy #bgpostivexposure #frost #morning #beauty #PNW #cold #sparkle #sunrise #water #breathdeeply #photography #nature #farm #justgoshoot #instaphoto #picoftheday #capture #throughthelens (at Toledo, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9hLRX2lcVL/?igshid=12o7mtsevg1ih

This is a collaboration that my big Sister, Wendy Hewlett, and I have decided to share with everyone. The poems are original poems written by her and photos taken by me. I'm going to try and post a new one ever Wednesday. Hopefully these can provoke thought and conversation. Thank you for taking time out of your day to give it a look. #bepositive #beexposed #behappy #brotherandsister #collaboration #love #poetry #photography Pacific Northwest Freeway Trance Feels, smells, a traffic jungle dance Red, yellow, white traces to bestow From above scene swirls below Tires pounding hard paved ground Darkness alive with rhythmic sounds Pictured forever pulsing spots Pattern of lines, curves and dots Colors ebb, flow, fade and smear View of cars, side, front and rear Threads of movement waves of night Pathways traced by moving light Wendy N. 2-26-2020 (at Bellevue, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9DkxQDFz-U/?igshid=1lfq91tlc89pz

Be the King/Queen of "your" Jungle.... Have the strength and courage to take on the world with the same fierceness and power as a lion. Don't let the your ego dictate your actions, take control of your mind and make the world bow at your feet. Life is what you make it, take it on and never look back. #bepositive #beexposed #behappy #bgpositivexposure #strength #courage #lion #king #jungle #queen #takeaction #power (at Woodland Park Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9B8FlildjY/?igshid=19d8fq55i5vcl
