After spending 37 years in front of or behind the camera, 2014 was a real challenge for me as a photographer. To start off I had an accident in January that broke my wrist, cracked my skull, and as I recently found out, also broke my back at T-12.
In April I moved from TX to AZ. Within a few days of arriving in AZ one of my younger brothers died; in May my youngest daughter graduated college; in June I welcomed a grandson; and that same month my mother died.
My photography had to be put aside for a while so I could heal emotionally and physically.
In September my friend Roger pointed out that I hadn’t posted any new pictures in a very long time. Of course I explained that I was not fully recovered and that I hadn’t been taking pictures at all. So he challenged me to take out some old photos and put them through Photoshop and post those. So I did, and that was the start of ‘The Roger Pictures’ that were posted daily through the beginning of 2015.
This project was just what I needed to shake off some of the sadness and help revive my passion for photography again. I hope you enjoy some of my favorites from this collection. You can find more of my photos on my website: http://roguephotos.virb.com
