Wet Rocks
Yesterday, it was windy and rainy—good enough reasons to spend the day on the couch. To pass the time, I watched some of Thomas Heaton’s videos, and this one stood out:

It really hit me because I had been staring out the window all day, thinking I should go out to shoot. But I couldn’t, because it was raining. Or windy. Or the dog needed a walk. Or a million other excuses not to go outside right then. That video highlighted the essential point: be there.
So this morning, I headed to Kopparnäs and was on the beach over half an hour before sunrise. I didn’t capture anything groundbreaking, but it’s rare to regret outings like these later. You don’t often think, “Wow, what a dumb idea it was to head out so early for some fresh air.”
