I really needed this
I really needed a beautiful foggy morning with my camera
just out here in nature, enjoying this
it's been a while, I haven't done much photography in the last few weeks
for many reasons: the weather, allergies
I was also training for a half-marathon race
and as you know, most of my photography during my daily walks
but, when I was training for this, I didn't do much walking
it was all running
but whatever the reason, the thing is that I haven't done much photography lately
and I could feel it
not just because I wasn't making any photos, of course
but also in other aspects of my life
I've been feeling less motivated, less inspired
that's because photography is a big part of my life, it's my lifestyle
and it's through photography that I can...
that I'm creative, that I get out here
to explore and discover the world, and what's around me
so when I don't have that, of course I miss it, and I miss it a lot
of course, this is just my case
but I believe that photography can do this for anyone
you know, where to go and what to photograph...
that doesn't really matter
I don't have plans for this morning, I've been just driving around
chasing the fog and the light
I missed that rush, trying to find something, trying to find images around here
that's what sparks my creativity and imagination
that's what drives me and keeps me engaged with this whole process
I've made a couple of images so far
they are nothing great, they are nothing to write home about
but I already feel better, I already feel a bit happier
I feel like this morning has been worth it, already
and that to me is the power of photography
so if you're in a creative rut, like I have been
even though mine was a little bit self-imposed
the only solution, the only fix, the only way to get out of there
is to grab your camera and go out
maybe get up early and catch a sunrise
or stay up late and catch a sunset
so you have, I don't know, a more beautiful and inspiring situation
but as I always say, there's always an image to be made
I'd like to thank Tsvetomil Semkov for his support, for being a Patreon of mine
