Challenge

Working from home can be a challenge in itself in that there aren’t the usual forces around you that would challenge you like other careers. It’s a lot like working out at the gym versus working out at home. It’s easier to get pumped up about working out when you are surrounded by people pushing themselves to get in shape. It’s not as easy to get motivated to workout when you are sitting on the couch looking at the workout DVD cases in your TV stand.
So in order to challenge myself to continue growing as a photographer I’ve come up with a self-imposed challenge. In the next couple of weeks I am going to photograph representative color objects on the color wheel. I might put them together to create a piece in itself but who knows….that might be my next challenge!
I’m planning on going to our local Farmer’s Market in downtown San Luis Obispo tonight so I might be able to shoot all the colors tonight!

Seeing A Pattern….

I was going through my photos to find a particular one and I noticed that I find myself being drawn to photograph some similar scenes. One pattern I see in my portfolio is empty chairs and benches…not sure what the draw is. Does anyone else see a pattern in what they are drawn to photograph?
