Signs of Hope

What if one powerful community of women photographers with a kind and beautiful vision of the world could make one hopeful dream come true?

Stay tuned, sisters.  All signs say our turn is just around the bend.  Hopeful dreams work best when we're all in this together, and goodness knows it wouldn't be the same without you.  Leave us your best "yes, count me in" images in the comments below.

I knew if I was just patient a little longer, I'd be up long enough to read this post. I'm excited for whatever it is you're sending our way and for whatever it is you've been putting out to the universe! This is my "yes, count me in!" photo. Seems like she's saying the same thing, too!: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jeroldssis/3362609765/

(By the way, I know that area of L.A. well. Great shot!)

Love the thought of us collectively sending our messages of hope out into the universe. Such a powerful thought.
Here's my piece of inspiration and hope.

At first I didn't pay attention to the symbolism, but I've adopted it as a mantra that things will eventually get better--"over the rainbow".

A video I posted on my blog today is a very thought provoking piece and the message within tells me that we are not alone. It gives me hope. If you are a photographer of creative type, I urge you to take a looksee, you will not be disappointed.

Can't wait to find out what you've got cooking!

Here's one of my favorite shots from my garden - I love it so much that it's part of the header for my blog. To me, it's full of hope and optimism and the promise of the future, growing out of a tough environment.
