If photography isn't a passion enough for you, here's one reason I was recently reminded to never stop shooting and always have a camera handy. Because - you just never know.
I took lots of pictures while visiting with my mom and dad in Germany a few years ago. My dad was being taken care of in a home due to Alzheimer's. He passed away while I was back in the States. Little did I know at the time, that I was taking the last photos of my dad.
Fast forward about a year, and I was visiting again for my mom's birthday. Again, little did I know - but I was taking the last photos of my mom, who passed away just over a WEEK after I returned.
I miss them dearly, but thankfully I'm able to look back at photos I took for as long as I could.
NEVER stop shooting!
