My Sunday has been far from lazy. I was up until 3 am last night working on re-sizing and organizing images. I woke up late this morning (afternoon) to return to the process. I get frustrated at times, all this "prepratory" work to get a portfolio and experience, with no guarentee. The images I was working on today were for no one in particular, and a lot of them were not very good at all, which ended up being quite discouraging.
What am I working towards, a career in a field where technology changes at a very rapid rate. A profession which is incredibly competitive and those with simple little pocket camera's who are willing to get published for "name credit" ruin the going rate for sales.
Then I attend an exhibit tonight which featured pieces of a very dear friend, Chad. I love his work, and I'm sure I'm biased, but he is an inspriation, and it is wonderful to see a fellow photographer getting his work "out there".
Here is my image for today, it is an image which was taken at a club outing. We did a Paint with Light night, and it is one of my favorites. Thinking this was something relatively new until I was with someone who was doing cave photography, and I overheard him say, "I'm going to paint with light over here". Of course, this has been around forever, not a new thing introduced to the photography world. Just something which is relatively new to me.
