Your Life As Art Photography by Pam
Artist & Intuitive | Pamela Zmija
Its a special day, for someone close to me, the sunshine is the perfect photo for today! <3
Nature + Sunshine + Photography have a beautiful way of healing me, pulling within and allowing my creative juices to flow. The bokeh of this lens is just so delicious to me!
It was a frosty winter morning the other day, it was chilly, but this is just beauty!
Frozen snowy evergreen in the sunshine!
The winter provides the best time for rest, relaxation and to really come home to who you really are. I enjoy the downtime, I love getting out into nature forest bathing and when I align into me, is when I feel my absolute best.
Monday morning as I left for work, I noticed in the dim morning light, the trees were beautifully blanketed in a frosty snow. I snapped a couple quick ones with my phone and silently hoped the trees would stay blanketed until I got home.
A lot of things happen and I will never know the answer, I am however grateful when true desires of my heart align. This photo popped out at me, it also reminds me of the Lens-Artists Challenge this week – Shapes and Designs!
I pulled out my Canon EF 180mm f3.5L macro lens – I LOVE the reach and given that the tree branches were higher up, this was the go to lens! The results, incredible.
I love the macro close up of this evergreen tree and the design of the branches with the frosty snow.
The energy this week has been interesting, up, down, and all around. What I am consciously choosing to do is always put out love and peace into the world. What better way to do that, than with what I love, what is the best desire and passions within my life, photography. I feel like we are on the verge of an energy boost, an energetic re-balance. I welcome it, with open arms.
Feeling and healing my own emotions, allowing them to be what they need to be, to process or just be. Recognizing any energy leaks. Learning to put me first without guilt. Honoring the individual journey. Mutual respect and laughter. Fun and frolics.
Photography helps fill a void for me that in many ways will always be. I capture what I love and those I love. Images that I would want to look back on, in the moment and even posed. Deep gratitude for all memories, even through the pain of realizing for some this is where it ends. A life transition, I am still not ready for, navigating step by step, day by day. Healing. Healing without guilt of the process, which feels daunting and long some days.
Knowing the joy, comfort and creative boost photography brings me, I truly hope everyone has some kind of interest like that, whatever it may be. We all deserve it.
Step into trust in your own life, first with yourself!
The other morning, as the temperatures warmed up, the trees had the most beautiful blanket of snow over them. I was grateful for my timing today, the tree’s were in the bright, warm sunlight and as I was taking photos the snow was gently beginning to fall.
For Terri’s Tuesday Flower Hour challenge, I selected this one on the morning of one of the coldest days of winter here in Southwestern Ontario.
Keeping the week priors Lens-Artists Rejected theme in mind, this has truly helped shift my creativity.

The temperatures significantly dropped from about -20 Saturday night to -6 this morning, the trees and plants were covered in a beautiful blanket of frosty snow!
As we were traveling to our daughters hockey game this weekend, the sun was hitting perfectly. We had left a little bit later than I had hoped, and yet, our timing was perfect.
I pulled out my smaller camera as the sun was shining through the windshield and captured its beauty, not realizing until I got the images on the computer what I had actually captured.
A little magic for your Monday morning!
Curious what I mean, look at the road and in the one below, look up from the road a wee bit further down.
These photos were taken at 2 completely different locations, same road but the 2nd was much further down.
We had a couple orbs following us. A green/blue one and pink/purple!
As we were driving I captured this image as the sunlight shone into the vehicle, it hit my heart when I saw what I had captured with the 444 in the light!
A group of us rode to our daughters hockey game today. On our way back the sun was beginning to set, the warmth in the bright sunlight was incredible!
As we turned a corner I gasped…
The Full Snow Moon – huge in the sky!
As I gasped ,it was like my husband heard me, he knew, as he was leading the group of us, he paused over to the side and allowed me to take the lead with space to stop for photos. Im grateful for that, as I could have stopped about 100 times on our way over and back ;)
The photos truly do not do this moon any justice, it was incredible! I almost brought my small camera home on the sled with me, however I was so grateful to have my cell phone, and still had battery!
It felt really cool riding under the full moon as it was beginning its ascent into the higher sky for the night. Hope you were able to catch a glimpse of this beauty!
