Everytime I visit somewhere new I crave a day alone, on foot, camera in hand…but being a single mom of a 3 year old doesn’t exactly support that drive. My game plan is to turn him into a mini photographer so he’ll come shoot along with me.

A month of nothing but photos sounds like heaven right now. Thank you for organizing it. Please count me in.

I love these little tidbits you keep leaving about the books. It’s so much fun to hear the highlights of your progress. I’m looking forward to seeing them when they’re done.

I do sort of love getting into that “zone,” even if it drives everyone else mad (I think there’s a French word for it, monomanie, that I wish existed in the English language!)

Ah, yes, that compulsion. Not understood by many non-camera toting people. I prefer to photograph alone. I find it much harder when I’m with someone else unless they’re a photographer. Plus, part of the pleasure for me is completely zoning out and going into my own little camera world.

Being precious and creative blocks. An “a-ha” moment right there!
Thanks for the info about the workshop – I was just wondering about that this morning. :)

I hear ya. I get really uncomfortable when I’m with friends and family and they either get frustrated with me for stopping so much or they are excessively involved and want to suggest photo ops all the time. I also love going to the movies alone and try to do it once every couple of weeks. x

Hey babe ~ everyone I know KNOWS that I will make them stop and reverse when I’ve got my camera. Frustrating much? (maybe!)

So happy to be part of August break. Have a great weekend. xo
