On Friday, my baby went a-walking,
On a Saturday, she locked me outta the door,
On a Sunday, we were sitting down a-talking,
On a Monday, she pawned all of my clothes...
Mmmm... Monday. I thought to myself before opening my eyes this morning. Good ol' Monday. The cause of such "itis's" as Mondayitis. Hello. Good day. Please don't visit me today.
It took me a while to properly open my eyes this morning. Besides from the fact that its Monday and a day between a Saturday and Monday never seems enough time for self restoration. When I woke this morning, I felt rather ill. Mondayitis has come to visit me. Ugh. As thoughts about what sort of day today could be began to run through my head, a slight reluctance suddenly came over me making me want to stay home just a little bit more than usual. But what the hell, why waste a day of your life eh? So I got up out of bed, groaning like a little kid being forced to get dressed for school. Walked towards the door and as I opened it, I was almost blinded by strips of light coming from my kitchen. I grabbed at the handle and all of a sudden, I was in awe. In awe of the beautiful sunlight streaming through the wooden blinds of my dining room. Amazing. This light immediately put a dial on my face and every feeling of reluctance disappeared like it hadn't been there to begin with.
All of a sudden feeling giddy, I looked around and thought, mmmm breakfast time. Milo cereal? Choice. So with a bowl of goodness in one hand and spoon in the other, I began to make my way to my lounge room. Even more amazing. The sunlight seems to shine better and brighter in here than in the kitchen. As I was eating my cereal, something tapped into my head. A sudden urge sparked inside of me to do something that I hadn't done in a long time - Photography. It's been way too long between triggers, composition, lighting, position, texture, pattern.
I think I'm definitely going to start carrying my camera around with me everywhere again. I've always had a great interest in Photography as a hobby. Always wondered why I stopped doing it for so long, but now that its crossed my mind once again, the vibe is on as is the motivation. So me and my image-forming device is back! Hopefully Melbourne will milk us some more sunny days. Please please please :)
Although, having said that, today I didn't have too much time on my hands, as I had to run to work earlier than I thought. But I got some pretty sweet shots in with some cool blind effects. Didn't wanna let that light get away from me!
Here's the results! Hope you enjoy.
