It has become increasingly difficult to catch up with image selection
and processing from each of my trips... I miss the days when I could
just come home, focus on getting all the pictures processed and then
write good stories about my trips. It's been so busy lately, and I
still have not had a chance to complete my Hawaii trip journals.
The
truth is -- I still try to take some short trips during the
weekends to enjoy life as much as I can; I still try to capture the
beauty of our nature, although it hasn't been successful lately; I still
try very hard to be as thorough and diligent as possible when it comes
to photography; I still try to get up early and go to bed late just to
catch the best possible light...
As
usual, these images involved getting up at 5:30 in the morning, driving
to the pre-selected location and waiting in the dark for 30+ minutes;
hiking up to the mountain top in icy trails and standing in -20C high
winds to catch the first light of the
day! They may be viewed as "sugar-water images" by "real"
photographers, but oh well, I love them! Just close your eyes and
imagine how much better the images would be had there been snow on the
rocks... I am going back next year when there IS more snow!!!
Life is great, enjoy it thoroughly when you can!
