More uplifting snaps from my 6AM walks, (which I skipped this morning for no good reason) that remind me of how important it is to always carry the camera with me, as if it's strapped to my hip as I walk out the door.
I have attached my house keys to a small pack that just fits the bulkiness of the big lens.
I have always felt that that is the difference between me and a gifted photographer, (in addition to scads of technical ability) my reluctance to always be willing to carry the thing everywhere I go.
Also the feeling that everyone's staring at me when I take photos in public, but I'm getting over that.
I'm trying to embrace the concept of "digital camera with rechargeable battery and 4GB memory stick= unlimited shots" and rejoice in the fact that everything is now in my hands, no developers, or sending away to have photos enlarged and cropped.
Yes children, we used to have to do that!
No more disposable flashbulbs, film sprockets, or expensive wasted shots should have all of us would-be photographers dancing in the streets with our cameras firmly in hand.
That's what I'm trying to do, so please excuse the endless sunrises, sunsets, and macro florals, because at this point they all look to me like the first ones ever!

Love your 6am walk photos and that you carry your camera everywhere, too! I can relate to the days of flash bulbs and film and developing, too. :)
