Lately it feels like I've been full of inspiration and ideas of what I want to do and where I want to take my photography. Being my self, I know I get 'obsesive' with some of my interests sometimes, but it really feels different with this one. I don't know what will happen with it or where it will take me but i don't want it to pass me by.
Over the past three years photographing everything that was in front of me, leaning how to take a picture, how to make it better, how to adjust for this and that...I slowed down and though...why? Why take this picture. Well, for one, it makes me happy. I enjoy it. But I want there to be a purpose. A reason, project, a goal for me to take these pictures.
Up until now I have lacked direction and focus. I have an idea of what I like to shoot, and i like to think I know how, but I haven't had the focus to carry it through and get it to the level i'm happy with. Inspiration, no matter how great, without direction and focus just leaves you sitting there on your ass.
I'm probably going to be going in all different directions here, but hopefully there will be some kind of...whatever you call it. Focus.
