take more photographs

there was a time when i couldn’t leave the house without my camera, and happy accidents kept me taking pictures which made me happy.

today, after a camera theft, a spell in a town with no security, and a bout of travelling enough to make tinker bell quite dizzy, the new camera sits in the bottom of a drawer, forgotten in the dust.

let’s see what we can do about re-activating that…

i have stopped taking pictures. i think this month hasn’t been that good for me. however, i will be going travelling in february/march (carnival in rio!), and i have signed up to a short course in may, so hopefully all these things will inspire me…

i will enrol in a photography course this year. i’m thinking of doing a short one, rather than a full degree or anything. let’s see if it sticks!

i’m struggling a little, but some pictures are coming out. today, i took a couple, tomorrow, who knows?

the places you’re in will either give you lots of images or not, but it really depends on how you feel about the places you’re in.

when i was on holiday recently i took some really good photos, i was very happy. usually i don’t like taking photos when travelling, as i think you should be in the moment, not taking photos of the moment. still, this time i think i managed to strike a good balance.

now i’m back home and i just can’t find anything to take pictures of. everyday: wake up, get on the tube, walk to the office, and then reverse the process.

i need to get somewhere else, but don’t know where. maybe i should organize myself some photo-safaris.

this weekend there’s a street festival in bethnal green, so i’ll go there see if something comes up…
