is a little shake?
It is the life of the crystal, the architect of the flake, the fire of the frost, the soul of the sunbeam. This crisp winter air is full of it.
John Burroughs
I remember as a child loving snowglobes. Those tiny, perfect little worlds that changed just a little whenever you picked them up and shook them.
These frozen bubbles are a little like those and perhaps that’s why I enjoy seeing them develop. Each one different, each one a little capture of a winter day.
Photography and whatever niche we put ourselves in is also a little like that. We get comfortable photographing certain things and stay in our comfort zones but is that always good?
Well that depends. I recommend shaking it up every so often. Go out and photograph something that you have never photographed before. It’s eye-opening and I guarantee that it will make you a better photographer.
There’s a secret to it though…you have to commit, don’t just take a half hearted stab at it.
Give it a little shake. You won’t be sorry.
Note: For client privacy reasons I could not post images from my recent session but I completely endorse the “shake it up” process.
it's (almost always) about the water... 
🙂 Lovely, as always.
