I just returned from a full morning of available shooting time, much anticipated by me. I had been looking forward to full fall tree colors for weeks. I drove to a large and scenic state park, spent around three hours there, and feel like I have accomplished next to nothing.
I shot some trees, nicely lit in the morning sun, then shot some more. A few more over a lake with nice reflections. But the whole time I was wishing there were something more interesting to shoot. Yeah, I looked around with a photographer's eye, considered unique angles / perspectives, etc.
I feel like I could go several years now without shooting another orange leaf.
So, I left the park, drove around a bit in search of opportunities. Got discouraged after about 20 minutes and came home.
Seems like when I go out in search of great images, I come away with nothing; kinda like what they say about looking for love - if you try too hard, it won't happen.
Anyway, just felt like sharing.
