You got to keep shooting. Even when you're not always feeling in the zone.
I haven't had the chance to get out and shoot landscapes, or work on my personal projects that I'm so passionate about. This alone I found was starting to tug heavily on mind, body and spirit. I know I need to get out and shoot, but how can I when daily obligations are fighting for your immediate attention?
Some of those obligations would include house hold chores - like laundry. which my neighbour has so kindly offered up his machine. So twice weekly, I head across the hall to do the deed. And every time, I am met with the cutest and most endearing set of puppy dog eyes and a wagging tail.
Let me introduce you to Mr. Winston, my neighbours pug. Day after day he will patiently wait on his favourite chair, waiting for Mike to come home from work. Refusing to move as any devoted dog I know would do.
And that's when it hit me. Inspiration of the furry kind. I slipped the tripod in on my 1st visit, and left it for him to get use to. Then I would focus and spend time with him on the second visit. By the time it came to placing the second load of laundry in the dryer, I was ready to shoot away. That's how I was able to capture the longing that you see in his eyes. A loving puppy who misses his master dearly and can't wait for his next meal.
