Ignite: a creative discovery, month 3

My birthday was yesterday. I celebrated the beginning of a new year and all the things I dream of doing in this lifetime. And in these years one thing that always holds true…is that I love being creative. I need it to breath, to be me.

With this monthly challenge I wanted to show you Conrad, this little boy I have photographed since birth. And my ongoing flower series. Thank you for taking a look and as always, looking forward to next month.

Now see what ignited Susan Gietka, Atlantic County, NJ creativity.
