How I overcame a photographer’s block
Usually I don’t have much time during the week to take pictures, so I can’t wait for the weekend (Friday and Saturday in Dubai) to create something that is visually appealing.Today I had the photographer’s block. Outside is so humid my camera would be instantly all covered with condensation, inside I could’t find anything inspiring. So I’ve been desperately trying to find any objects that could unlock my creativity (I finally managed to work with some dry lavender, a ring, my pearls, a tule, some old seashells and a matchbox). Few of the pictures I took today are uploaded below and I’ll keep some more for another day. All the pictures below, except the lavender one, are taken in a dark room, with a tripod and long exposures.
Note to myself: don’t be afraid to make mistakes, you are learning something in the process.
