Photo taken by contributor Kevin W. Gardner, a 53-year-old man who has been suffering from bipolar disorder all his life. He deals with his illness through photography.
About this photo: “Season’s Changing, Spring River, Miami, Oklahoma. When I took this photo, I was preparing myself to get ready for the changing of the seasons, which means I have to focus on letting go of the past, and start focusing on my wellbeing. Even though I find myself struggling with my illness, I still take the time to focus on the good things in my life, which includes photography.”

seriously considering quitting photography. I have outgrown my current camera and I just cannot afford an dslr camera, even a used dslr camera is out of my reach.

We hope you continue, Kevin! Photography (at least how we view it) is not just about fancy cameras or a technically perfect finished product. It’s about the process. The act of taking photos can be therapeutic, even if you just use a phone camera or a disposable camera. The photos in our gallery are not just taken by high end cameras. They are taken by people who use photography as a mindfulness tool, an outlet, or a way to explore their inner thoughts and emotions however they can. You are very talented and have a lot to say. Keep creating.
