Stick by a Lake
Having been under one deadline or another since age 15 I have found solitude in clicking off thousands of shots in my private 3:2 domain. The moment my face is buried in the viewfinder it becomes my world. No one is demanding "this or that" by a certain deadline, it's just me and the subject. Photography for me has always been about the physical process not the result, thats why I have so many hard drives full of material. If there are requirements or expectations from my photography it no longer is a hobby, it becomes work. This is why I will always be an amateur.
Covid has dramatically decelerated my life over the last several months. Like a thief in a holding pattern, friends taken from me with restrictions placed around me, some real some imagined.
But this pandemic has enabled the ability to review photos not examined since sequestered to a hard drive. Released from work responsibilities and let to my own thoughts Covid has caused me to be retrospective. Sharing moments with my family, friends, and even posting more on flickr.
This soon will revert back, Covid failed to put my financial obligations on hold, work starts up next week and with it all the stress and responsibilities.
The shot was taken in Alaska along side a road on the way to Kenai Peninsula.
