Good morning,
While I am waiting for this print to start I figured I would write about slumps again. I am currently in one, I am not sure if it is because I am just enjoying the moment or because I am not a fan of the new software that I am needing to learn to process raw files or something I am not thinking about.
One of the ways that I have gotten out of slumps before it to tell myself to treat it like I have one roll of film and that is all the pictures I am allowed to take that day. I still sometimes have to force myself to step out with the camera, once I start going I end up looking for the perfect shot of the subject because I only have 36 exposures for the day. You can go with 24 if you want. It is almost like reverse psychology. It is something that has helped me get out of a slump when other things didn’t.
This Flame Skimmer dragonfly got me out taking pictures a few days ago. I took 24 pictures of it. I wasn’t specifically trying to, I took so few because I had to get kids from school and I didn’t want to have to use the new software as much to make the image.
