Photo-less

While doing some year end digital housekeeping, I noticed a rather disturbing trend. With less than 6 weeks left in the year, I’ve posted less than a third the number of photos I did in each of the previous 4 years. Even worse, I went over five months, from the end of March until the beginning of September, without posting a single photo.

That is just wrong on so many levels. It’s not that I took so many less photos this year than in previous years, I just didn’t get around to posting very many. This was partly because I had more of a lag between shooting and processing, which made the photos seem less relevant once I finished them. But it was mostly because the mental stress of trying to design a house just sucked the juice out of me.

So, in the spirit of better late than never, I’ll try to recap some greatest hits from the year, starting with two photos from Tasmania.

I really like the balance of water and ground in the first photo, but I dig the pop of purple in the second one. If I could just move the purple flowers from the second photo into the first one, it would be perfect. But life doesn’t work like that, even with Photoshop.
