I also feel like I’m walking a tightrope ….. and that soon I might fall off! On the first of January I set myself a goal, to get out and take photographs every single day no matter what. So far I have achieved this goal by walking in snow, heavy rain, ice, and trudging through mud looking for interesting things to shoot. After a month of this challenge it’s fair to say I’m looking back at my pics and not being wholly inspired or satisfied by them. Lockdown means I am limited to walking the same places over and over and I feel it’s like getting blood out of a stone some days. This causes a bit of stress and creative pursuits should bring pleasure not stress! I’d prefer to use a better camera and take pics when I’m truly inspired. This exercise has been good for me in terms of learning about what interests me and what doesn’t. I don’t think I’m one for taking pretty pics of cliche beauty spots and that has featured here on this blog a bit. I’m more interested in kooky, ugly, weird and offbeat subjects of which there are not too many walking daily over the downs. I may just take the pressure off myself now and shoot when I’m inspired. It’s ok to fall off the rope sometimes, the guy below fell off many times as I watched him. He got back up there again though which is all that matters.
