Well the nightmare is nearly over and I am starting to feel the first flushes of creativity coursing through my body. Hopefully by the end of this week I'll have pulled the portfolio together, mounted it and posted it. That will be it. Never again. (Although you should never say never so perhaps I should qualify this with probably never again!)
Over the past month or so I have found the whole process of meeting all the rules surrounding an ARPS submission for Nature really off putting, so much so that I haven't been out and taken any really interesting and exciting photographs for a couple of months. I guess I just lost my MoJo baby yeah! Enough of the Austin Powers. Although it does feel like that. No motivation, no excitement. However, there is a small glimmer of hope.
Yesterday I went a walk around Bradgate Park and started to take a few photographs. It felt quite good. I then processed the car and found a number of other photographs that I had made over the past couple of months sitting on the card waiting to be processed. In amongst the dross there were two or three photographs that made me excited. Perhaps my MoJo hadn't disappeared but rather gone into hibernation. Perhaps.
One final thing. I am now concentrating my blogging using Posterous. They have some really interesting themes, better than the Blogger account. I will still post stuff to blogger but the work will be published with Posterous in mind so if you want to see the work at their best then Posterous is the place to go.
