Awakening

100% Arabica

My first post since 2011, so much has gone on and I have been so so very busy, but, I am back, and hopefully for good.  I have neglected this blog for too long now and I really need to keep it up to date, not just for me but for my sanity, I really want 2012 to be all about my photography (for me at least), I want to make something more than just images on a screen.  That is what inspired this image, I woke up on New Years day and thought, I need a fresh start, I need to focus more, and that focus appeared as my two passions, photography and coffee lol.

The reason why this was so significant for me was because it was my first upload since November 2011 and also my first upload in 2012, but more importantly it symbolised my awakening back into photography and my ‘freshness’ (is that even a word, spellcheck says it is lmao) with my photography.  I want to tackle subjects that I never thought about before and also challenge myself to be a better photographer.  Some of my recent uploads on Flickr have shown this and I hope that you have all looked at them at least.  My journey continues and I believe it is endless, every time I take a shot that I am really pleased with it just pushes me to improve on that.  I suppose you can say the same about a lot of things but as this is my passion I am loving the journey, and long may it continue for me and all of us with a passion in our lives
