Behind in the Count
I have fallen behind in my “One a Day” photo quest for 2010, and I do not think I will be making any attempt to catch up. My camera has been acting a bit strangely, and I lost my trusty, yet extraordinarily sharp point and shoot (a Panasonic Lumix) in an unfortunate sidewalk accident this spring. Sometimes I use my boyfriend’s Canon Powershot, or my cell phone, but neither of these allow me to capture a photo that is good enough to post online. Yes, once in a while, I get lucky with the Powershot, but for the most part, it’s photos all come out foggy and unclear.
Also, I have been searching for full time work since last November, and am close to landing a decent position. It’s out of my field, and almost half of what my last salary was, but I think the job is a good one, and the company is somewhere that I can grow and shine. So as you may imagine, I am busy with studying interview scenarios, reading the company’s history and policies, and of course, shopping for new clothes to wear to my multiple interviews!
For the rest of the year, I will post photos from my archives, and photos as I take them, when I am inspired. The daily photo was becoming too much of a chore, and I never want photography to be something that I consider a burden. I want to always enjoy making photographs and seeing things through a lens.
