stop-n-go

Did it for my 52 weeks project "let's get creative" in 2014 but did not upload it.

I had to learn for my exams and then I was in Cuba after that my 52-weeks came to nothing.

A little bit sad but sometimes I think these kind of projects do the opposite to me . I am forced to take a picture with a given title and some of my ideas were really unsatisfying. I didn't see any progress in my work. Which was one of the intentions of the creators of this nice project.

It reminds me on school and later also university: I can only learn hard if I am interested in the subject. I need motivation for learning. And making more people (conceptual) photography, mostly better selfies is not a motivation to me.

 

So perhaps this project helped me to realise what I do not want in photography and what photography does not need either: Another person with some depressions-what-ever-I-am-sad-I-have-to-make-photos-of me-naked-in-nature-photographer.

If I really have an itch to do some self-portraits to express my feelings I still will do it in this particular moment.
