When trying to produce images, I have heard the complaints of others and experienced moments of disappointment when conditions weren’t what we hoped for. I’m relating to those dawns when clear blue skies predominated, when fog obscured the rising sun obliterating all golden light, when rain tipped the balance of staying in bed rather photographing. Since photography is a hobby, I believe it is important to have an ethos which reflects positivity in order to maintain the elements of interest and fun. With that in mind, I developed a brief analogy to appreciate the good and enjoy the ‘bad’ times!
We all take steps toward reaching a mythical goal of photographic perfection. Along this winding journey, light helps us find our way through moments of cantering or crawling to journey’s end, and so……..
When there is ‘no’ light, we create a path of our own…
When light gives us an inch, we stretch that inch into a mile…
When light gives us a mile, we take that mile with gratitude.
Closer to home there aren’t the glaciers of Patagonia, the geothermal landscapes of Iceland, the alpine beauty of New Zealand nor the majesty of the Himalayas. However, these images represent the beauty of South Australia, our home where we have taken more steps along our photographic journey than anywhere else in this beautiful world 🙂
Cheers to staying positive !

Cracking images, excellent work!
its all about the light inside as much as the light outside 🙂
Thank you for adding another layer to the analogy 😉

Very true jordan !
Beautifully said. I have been struggling with staying positive this week after being in Victoria on a driving holiday and seeing such beautiful scenery but experiencing such horrible weather! You just have to make do with what you’ve got and hope next time you come back the weather will play along!
yea it’s hard to stay positive sometimes – I find it tough when shooting at home and I only get one chance a week to head out – when the conditions are bland, it’s a bit of a party pooper !
Couldn’t agree with you more.
I follow you on Facebook and now your blog, some beautiful photography 🙂
Thanks Jordan !
