Seeing...

Photography’s been a bit lacklustre since my Hebridean trip; I’m just not seeing the pictures like I’m accustomed to. It’s usually effortless… just grab the camera and go. Maybe I’m trying too hard. So many things can get in the way of seeing clearly: ideas, memories, impatience, feeling under pressure, feeling rushed, having targets, needing to get results, feeling under the weather, etc. A camera can help us to see… or it can hinder; it depends on how we use it. Is it a barrier… or a window on the world?
