So here we are... achievement unlocked: 7000 followers. Thank you all, truly, I'm overwhelmed with the love <3.
Some of us have personal goals that we set for ourselves, long ago, I had descided that this was it, and now that I'm here... I'm not really sure what to do with myself.
A few things are coming to mind: Continue blogging for a few of my long-term sponsors and events, possibly get back into creating some new BOM stuff, or straight out retire.
Maybe it's a ten year itch, a Mid-(second)Life-Crisis... who knows, it will likely pass... just know that I have no more expectations of myself or anyone else, it's super empowering.
L'estate scorsa sulla spiaggia di Velia (Salerno). Questo è l'unico tipo di gioco del calcio che trovo interessante.

A shady spot with long cool grass at the end of a hot summer walk = lab goals.
Instead of watching football last friday, I ran outside and searched in the polder for a nice field with crop. In my neighbourhood farmers don't care about leading lines, the fields are a mess but the sky compensated the lack of a good foreground.

So the challenge was to light up the entire bird without any shadows. Also to have the maximum depth of field. We used 200mm macro lenses and let the speed lights stop the wing movement. Catching the hummers fighting was the goal but this happened so fast you had to be shooting when it happened. I spent six days, 10 hours a day shooting this setup. Out of all those shots less than 40 were usable.
Commit your way to the LORD,trust also in Him,&He shall bring it to pass.PSALM 37:5*
Anytime people set goals for their lives that require great striving,intense frustation,repeated failures,&manipulation of others-that is an unrealistic goal.
It is not within the realm of their God-given talents&abilities. It is beyond GODs plan&purpose for their life.Now,Im not saying that the achievement of goals doesnt require effort,education,training,or the development of skills.
Those factors are always necessary in the attainment of any goal that is worthy.God doesnt give us talents&abilities that are fully developed.He requires that we sharpen them&mature in their use.
ITs another thing entirely to commit yourself to becoming an opera singer when you cant carry a tune in a bucket.
per wikipedia "The goal of Lady Bug is to eat all dots, hearts and letters in the maze while avoiding other insects. The player is represented by a red, yellow, and green character resembling a ladybug while the enemy insects' appearance varies by level. The border of the maze acts as timer, with each circuit signaling the release of an enemy insect from the central area, up to (generally) a maximum of four. The speed of the circuit increases on stages 2 and 5."
The Waag River, that was my goal for the day and I got there via a beautiful detour of greenery and forests and extensive valleys. Not everything is about photographing trains, for me personally anyway.
Since the double railway line passes over two different bridges, this was a challenge that I was happy to take on to photograph there.
On foot with shoes in hand I ended up on an island where I had a nice view of the two bridges and there I took this photo, one of many, of a ZSSK Vectron with its Tatran express on the way to Bratislava.

I want this year to be an opportunity to be more present and aware of the privileged life I'm fortunate to live. 2019 was a year that often kept me in low places, and I continually found myself beneath a weight of burdens that I let tie themselves to me rather than let them pass over me.
To that goal, my partner suggested journaling to me. To write down the things that I struggle with. Write down the things I'm grateful for. Write down the things that are important to me.
My photography goals in 2020 mirror that of my mental health goals. I want to feel more open to being creative, and I want to be less selective about what I share. I want to spend less time under the weight of being perfect, or better than the last shot. I'm not built for that grind.
I scanned through the first journal entry I wrote in my new journal and came across the phrase "I want to be happy."
I wanted to share that piece of my journal without revealing all of my other sensitive things I'm writing about, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to embrace my photography goals as well.
I want to be happy. I want the people around to me to be happy and healthy as well.
Here's to a happy 2020.
