i miss photography. i miss it dearly. there isn't a day that goes by that i don't take mental photographs of the scenes around me. i have a pocket notebook that's filled with subjects i want to photograph, keywords that i want to inspire me later, and pages describing particular scenes in great detail so that i can recreate them later. you know how some people are dancers, and some people are musicians, and some people are painters, and some people are writers, and regardless of whether they're getting paid to do it, that's just what they are? a painter with no paint will still see the world as on a canvas, and a musician will make music even without instruments, and a dancer will dance even if no one is watching. i enjoy all those things, but i don't need them, because i'm not a writer or a dancer or a painter or a musician. i need photography, because i'm a photographer. even without my camera. i'm glad for the year long hiatus, because it made me realize that.  last | host | next |
