'What happiness means to me' by naomi

'What happiness means to me'

I didn't have a good morning. I came home incredibly worked up and kind of angry. I was home alone so I put on my music veryyyyy loudly while doing some urgently-needing-doing sewing. I then went on the trampoline with my Ipod in very loudly. I realised that loud music and doing physical things are some of the ways that I cope with any crap that's going on in my life. This isn't always possible so I was thinking about what other people do to relax them. I thought about my brother and how every day he gets in from school and gos and sits and plays the piano, singing along or the guitar, again singing along. He's always trying to teach himself pop songs and looking up chords online. I actually do miss his music when he's not home!!! So today's picture is of my brother playing his guitar. This is him, content :]
Love the focus and composition of this

I love this photo, both the composition and the thought behind it. My son plays the guitar when he gets home from school every day too. Music and physical activity are wonderful ways to burn off steam.

So Awesome, I try to get my 18 year old son to play his music and guitar again. He gets worked up from school too, and I told him that playing his guitar would b a great way to release stress. Music is wonderful way for relaxation.....

Very nice depth-of-field!

beautiful shot and interesting revelations! Music is definitely a big help when I'm in a bad mood - sad moods = romantic comedy movies.

I love the lighting of this shot. It's so light. That might sound wierd, but it goes along with how you said it was calming. :) Hope your day got better!
