Weekly Grab

This is my weekly compilation of photos and prompts. If you’d like to see these delivered daily to your inbox when they’re first released, including some subscriber only exclusives, consider supporting my work with a Substack subscription (also complimentary, but donations welcome). Thanks for following my curiosity journey.

Stay curious, preferably with a camera in hand.


Doorway

A curious posture is more than an open mind. It’s a thirst for understanding possibility and experiencing the unknown. Wondering what’s out there is a good start. But, the real journey begins by entering a new doorway.


Glow

We all have radiance, some sort of aura or glow which accompanies our presence. And often, it speaks for us. Some people just seem nicer, more approachable and calm than others. Others give off an angry or frustrated vibe. Of course, this isn’t by chance. Our glow is a culmination of hundreds, maybe thousands, of tiny acts. And often, this story unfolds in an instant even when we are unaware. The opportunity is this…we get make the glow we’d like to live into. The reality is…we have one whether we choose to or not. Might as well get busy making one we can be proud of.


Lever

What requires resetting? Where do we need to add leverage to change something for the better? Often, it’s not as obvious as it seems. Look more closely or change perspective before pulling the lever.


Everyone

It’s important to remember the thing you’re making, the service you provide, the style you’re offering isn’t for everyone. Quite the opposite, it’s for a specific someone, which is the beginning of a good strategy.


Instrument

Visions are constrained by execution, and typically require some instruments to become reality. Yet, all the tools in world are somewhat useless without a dream to get them going.


Missing

It’s not always obvious.

What’s one thing we could add to make it better?


Mess

Great projects, crafts or ideas rarely start orderly, neat and put together. The hard part is seeing the possibility and then making something worthwhile from of the mess.

Find more messes. See the possibility. Create something remarkable. What’s your next mess?
