While it may not be quick, easy or cheap it is still one of the few zen experiences we, as photographers, can still attain without the introduction of chemicals to our bodies.

Tonight, out of boredom and a need to pick up my camera, I decided to write down a list of things that popped into my little brain that I hate. And you know what? It was hard. It’s always harder to make a list of things on demand.

I decided to go ahead and shoot a self portrait, which I never had attempted before. Nothing crazy, but I can dig it.
