I'm going through a bit of a quiet period right now.
Feeling very much into a summer non-schedule with late breakfasts and even later than usual afternoon snacks of fruit smoothies with the kids. With the heat and the kid's activities there's just a whole lot of nothing going on around here. It's a very good nothing, mind you, just a quiet personal kind of nothing-ness.
After reading a photographic tip on Kal'sblog yesterday, I ran around all day with my cannon set to 'aperture priority' just to try it out. The sun was so strong however, the kind of sun that usually prevents me from getting the best images, but I'm happy with the way some of them turned out and I'll try the same aperture settings again in a softer, morning light to give it a more fair test.
I've also started a mini idea file with several new project ideas -- one small sketch per card -- to be started when that motivation front moves in again. I'm definitely feeling a need for a new sort of project brewing ... after the quiet lifts.
