i haven\u2019t gone, or died, \u2026 yet \u2026 in fact i\u2019ve been very busy this past year with one thing and another including lots of travels; france, italy, spain, and of course east asia, including thailand bali, and as usual, japan.<\/p>

it would be fair to say that i\u2019ve been undergoing something of a \u2018photographer\u2019s block\u2019 if this can be said to truly exist. on my last trip particularly, i\u2019ve felt that my \u2018vision\u2019 (i have to say i hate that word\u2009\u2014\u2009it seems to imply some sort of spirituality which i certainly don\u2019t acknowledge) anyway \u2018my vision\u2019 for want of something better has gone. i\u2019ve been seeing little of value in very recent work, nothing to excite me, and little exciting in the results.<\/p>

i\u2019ve also gotten myself bogged down in organising, supervising, and generally trying to beat some sense into my photo archive, like most other digital photographers i guess, i have a profligating collection of work, now going back decades, which i\u2019m trying to whip into some kind of accessible order, using adobe lightroom\u2019s flags, ratings, and filters to make some sense of it all.<\/p>

underneath it all there are personal things which i have no intention of going into here (you\u2019re better off believe me) informing my positivity towards my photography.anyway just to show that i\u2019m still here and mean to get over this hump i\u2019ll upload some of the images my camera has made more recently, if for no other purpose than to show my continuing presence. maybe you\u2019ll like them. do let me know in the comments below. i appreciate it.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
