Who am I?

My name is Michael Severin and I am 18 years old. I have always loved photography but have just now gotten around to really pursuing my passion. The reason I love photography is because the world around me is beautiful and I want other people to be able to share my experiences through a photograph. I am trying to convey feeling, emotion, and meaning through my photography. I am always looking for new things and people to photograph so if you are ever in need of a photographer feel free to contact me via email at mrseverin09@hotmail.com

A new beginning

So being in college is a great time for people to find out who they really are. Lately I have been struggling to figure out who I am or who I want to be (much less what I want to major in). The great thing about going to a small college like I am is that you really get to know everybody and see where you fit in. I have never really considered myself the kid that everybody wants to be with, nor am I the outcast, I am simply the kid that people know of but nobody knows what they are all about. Well there is one thing that I want everybody to know about me. I trust in God to lead me in life. This may seem weird to some of you who know me because I am not the most religious of people and I never really talk about my beliefs. However, I am a strong believer in Jesus Christ and I believe that there is an ultimate plan for me. Why am I telling you this? I am saying this because this is the beginning of a new type of blog for me. I am going to start updating more often (Or as often as I can) and every image is going to have a meaning to me and I will have a message to share with everybody. So for our first picture:
This was taken at a place called The Farm back in Conyers. This image is a few months old but it really has meaning to me now. The image is simply the hand of christ with a cross hanging from it. But what does it represent? To me the image is the story of christians everywhere. When christ died on the cross for us we were with him. We are the cross in this picture, forever with Christ and forever trusting in him. That is my image for today. it may not be spectacular but the message is strong.
