I wrote in the last blog post that I didn’t really have any plans for what I am going to do with my 2025 photographic or creative year and that still stands. No clue yet…however I also wrote that I’d try to get out there more to take more pictures, even if it is still pretty meh around here as far as light and weather goes. It IS getting better though, the days are getting longer and you don’t risk freezing body parts off when out and about (provided you wear sensible clothing of course!).

That is okay, because I am still very interested in photography as a subject...or topic. I definitely read books and magazines and watch videos online about photographers’ works and techniques, I’ve just not felt the urge to go out there and apply the skills or ideas presented in these various types of media.
