20 minutes, 2 espressos, 1 room, 66 pictures
Exercise is important, a few weeks ago I started thinking I should improve my fitness and started spending 5 - 15 minutes per day doing something that would improve me in some way. Now 15 minutes isn't long and you are probably wondering what the point is if that is all you are going put into it.
Well it seems you can achieve a fair bit. From having a hard time doing 20 simple Hindu squats without serious heavy breathing I am now doing 80 squats and feeling good at the end of it. And I didn't practice squats everyday.
The same goes for exercising your photographic seeing, do just a bit a day even when you have no projects on and it will be easier to get into seeing as an artist does.

As simple as it may sound, it is very true. Both for exercise, photography and just about everything else in life that requires practice. Better to do even the smallest amount than nothing at all.

I agree about exercising, I play tennis every Monday morning and on the courts next door are women in their eighties, great to see and very fit. That's going to be me one day, still playing when I'm old and grey......hope it doesn't rain tomorrow ;-)Great pics here Robert, nice and dark. Haven't seen that from you in a while.

I also agree about the exercising although sometimes its just so hard to find the motivation - at the moment I just walk my dog twice a day

I love the analogy about practicing photography like exercising. It is something I can definitely relate to. Do you have a favorite setting for pictures with more shadow?
