RE: How I Feel About Selfies ATM

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

To please yourself can be a difficult task indeed. And trying to force things can lead to even bigger disappointment. Sometimes after finishing a chapter of a book I felt like it was below my level. Strange thing is that if I tried to edit or rewrite them with that unseasy mindset the result was always less than I desired. Other times I was so happy with my writing that it felt like I could do no wrong. Those days were the most productive and required little to no edit at all. Same situation with puzzles. If I am frustrated or sad about not finding the right piece then progress becomes very slow. Other times I just pick a piece without even looking for it and it fits right away. So if you do not feel like making selfies don't try to force it. Seeing photos without a passion or a soul would be worse than not seeing them at all. your photos has that spark. Don't lose it. foodporn, natureporn, travelporn, writingporn...they all have their own appeal. Besides all of them should help to charge your batteries.

I feel the same way, when you have the right feel, everything seems to come out so easily, it a wonderful feeling, but when it doesn’t, it sucks. I hate forcing anything creative, it doesn’t work and it shows in the end result. I’m glad that I have so many different mediums I can use as my creative outlet, I don’t have to rely on just one.
