Denny Jump
At Sunrise of most any day, my senses are searching for an awakening. I see the light and clouds or the clear sky and I instantly think about the day before me, waiting to be shared and experienced.
At Sunset my senses may be calmer. The events of the day have shaped my passions and thoughts.
The great equalizer is the sky. My feelings engage with the beauty I see and somehow I take a step backward and breath. I look at the sky, feel the air, hear the sounds, and I hope that somewhere out there lies a purpose and a dream that we can all hold on to.
And, to me, that is why.....why I Look to the skies.
** Staples Singers - "Respect Yourself"
- " We do not move forward from a middle opinion, which is undemocratic but mediocratic.
We advance from a creative passion "- (Edgar Morin)
- "To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at
that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy."
- Henri Cartier-Bresson.
::Words from Denny:
- My beliefs, and values, have always been strongly tied-to music, especially Jazz, and Blues.
- The following artists and lyrics seem to "sum-up" where my spirit resides:
EARTH WIND AND FIRE;
"HOLD ON TO YOUR SPIRIT,
ALWAYS FEEL YOUR SOUL....
HONOR THE MAGIC IN YOUR HEART"; Earth Wind and Fire
