Issue 58 - Through the Lens

Welcome to Issue 58 of Deep Life Reflections. A special welcome to new subscribers and a grateful thanks to long-time readers.

This week, I take a special focus on photography, which is a passion of mine that has spanned over a decade. Since I bought my first camera in 2013—a Nikon D5300—I’ve captured over 3,000 photos from more than 65 cities and 35 countries around the globe. Reflecting on that journey, I’ve handpicked five of my favourite photos to share with you today. Each image represents something of the journey of life—from the raw power of the natural world to the innovation, resiliency, and beauty of humanity.

Photography is a fundamental aspect of Deep Life Journey because it opens the door to the deep life. Through the lens, we gain a unique perspective on the world, freezing moments in time that allow for deep introspection. It’s a tool for self-discovery, prompting us to contemplate our past, present, and future.

So, join me as we explore this week’s visual Friday Five and perhaps find a piece of ourselves reflected in them.

This week's cover photo is from my trip to Morocco in 2015. This particular photo was taken on a busy street in Marrakesh; I aimed my camera into the mirror of a street stall, capturing the people behind me going about their daily activities.

Thanks for taking this visual journey with me and for being part of the Deep Life Journey community. If you enjoyed these photos, you can also explore my full photography.
