A new start for 2012

Apologies for lack of blog postings; traveling around Canada since early December has been really fabulous but one of the traps I always seem to fall into is losing track of days/dates.

Suddenly it's 2012 already and time to think about what I want to personally achieve in my photography for the coming year. I have a large stack of books and DVDs that I want to get through, which just isn't going to happen on it's own.

So my first goal is to dedicate one night a week to "photography study". I'm pleased with how my photography is progressing but there is still so much I want to learn.

My other major goal is to "use or lose". I do suffer a bit from "Gear Acquisition Syndrome" and have a lot of small flash modifiers and books that presently sit on the shelf collecting dust as I tend to use my favourites over and over.

Time to be brutal. I need to sort out what I use and want to keep and what needs to go. Once that's sorted I will be having a clear-out sale of all the bits and pieces that need a new home. And to make room for the new stuff that I know will eventually make it's way in. :)

I also have a new direction I'd like to go in for some of my personal projects, but more on that later when I'm a little further down the track.

Happy belated New Year everyone. :)
