I’ve been sort of recovering from an incredibly busy couple of weeks but trying to get into shooting again on a daily basis. The light was kind to me this afternoon. I’m hoping the weather stays stable for the next week so I can get out to the Yarra Valley and shoot a winery, restaurant and cheese shop. I’ll post some shots when I’m happy with them.
Things seem to be easing up creatively.. I am getting back into shooting almost daily. That may well change again once I have university assignments and teaching placements.. we’ll see.
I managed a quick trip to central victoria this afternoon.. It was nice to get out of town. I didn’t shoot much, but got a few decent shots. This shot from Maldon works well I think. Maldon has one of the oldest street frontages in the country, with a lot of it dating back to before the gold rush. It was quite beautiful, I’d like to get back during the week sometime to shoot with fewer cars and people around.
I’ve not been shooting much lately, I’m really trying to pare back what I do. Learn and expand a little, I feel like I’ve hit a bit of a brick wall and that nothing has evolved for a while.
I know that this is an inevitability, I’ve felt it before, but I’ve also sort of enjoyed not shooting all the time. I’ve been re adjusting my headspace to get back into some part time study and I think I’m ready. I’ll definitely keep up the shooting, albeit at a slower pace.
Sometimes, colours jump out at me. This was one of those times. I really did very little to this. I’d thought about leaving the perfect blue sky in before I shot, but it distracted from the strong duo tone.
I’m undertaking a degree in secondary education with the plan of becoming a high school teacher. I’m planning on teaching photography, art, maybe some history & possible French. I will be studying part time for quite a few years. I’m looking forward to the challenge.
