The sky and the weather are two of those subjects that never end. Either they are with you or they are against you. In some countries, the weather is a constant source of discussion, in others, it is considered “bad taste” to talk about the weather as if there were nothing else to talk about.
Only if you have nothing else to say, do you start talking about the weather to keep the conversation going. Somewhat. For photographers, this is quite different.
Well, almost. Last year we decided to spend New Year’s Eve in Cape Breton, a mere 4-hour drive from our place. When we left Liverpool, the road was clean, the sky was clear and the mood was high. Ok, enough with this literary stuff…
Once on the road, it was clear after a few hours that the road would become quite tricky.
Time to hail in the new year. Some will think that I haven’t been posting as much as I “should” have. Perhaps these people are right. But there are attenuating circumstances. I think…
The past year has had its challenges on other levels than just photography.
It’s that time of the year again. The retrospectives are everywhere. The “Best Of…” selections of things already shown during the year are back.
So I thought I’ll jump on that bandwagon too. It seems like I partially missed it and am dragging my boots behind a fast-moving train instead.
Sometimes you find yourself in a place where you feel you do not belong. The space is not doing or being what it was designed for. It makes no sense.
This state or condition is called liminal. You feel in a transition, but don’t know why. Your reality takes a hit on the back of the head.
