Lessons in a beginner's mind pt xxx

I've been practicing Vispassana buddhism actively for about two years now. I find that what works  for me is to work on cultivating  the  loving-kindness/joyful aspects of heart-mind, and when photographing, to be able tp concentrate.  Quiet the mind allowing it to relax into spaciousness and try to perceive space as subject.  Seems that some days when the sprirt is right one can aim the camera at just about anything and be given something - something fun and playful, and maybe just maybe an experiece that allows us to drop our mental filters and to observe the artificial boundaries between world and self.
