It\u2019s Sunday. I got a nice long rest last night. I woke up and fixed some things on my site. It\u2019s still very much a work in progress. Lately I\u2019ve been making changes quite a lot. Sometimes there are pretty obvious errors that need fixing. Sometimes I just don\u2019t like the way something comes across. I want to be as clear and concise as possible while still conveying a little of who and what I am. Who and what I am is changing daily, so it can be difficult to nail down how I want the copy to read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I did a good bit of work in Lightroom today. Not sure what inspired me to start playing with the meta data, but that\u2019s what I did. I refined and reorganized my presets. First I had to remember how to make changes as it\u2019s been a long time since I\u2019ve done anything with them. That kinda led into trying to clean up my keywords. That\u2019s a very difficult thing to do after the fact when you have forty thousand files in your library, and it\u2019s constantly growing. I\u2019m going to need to think about upgrading my storage in the next year or so. But with the keywords I started out using Adobe Bridge as a file manager, which was a mistake. I thought I was being proactive and making things easier and more streamlined for myself in the future by creating a keyword hierarchy. Turns out it just a made a mess when Lightroom looks at the meta data. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll ever make it how I want it without undo time and effort. It just isn\u2019t reasonable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I did play around with some experimental shots I took several nights ago. They were taken from the comfort of my couch. I appreciate comfort a great deal, and wish I found myself in more different comfortable situations where I could just shoot random things in different ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pictures I\u2019m posting with this entry are variations on a ceiling fan. It\u2019s all the same image. It\u2019s just manipulated a little bit in each frame. A very little bit actually, but the looks are very different. I find it fun to play around\/experiment with images sometimes. I\u2019m probably being foolish to post things like this, but oh well. I doubt anyone will even look at this post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I need to work on my negativity. I suppose that this blog project is sort of a way to navigate my issues. Writing things like this help me order my thoughts. Archive them. Putting them online could be dangerous in some ways, but I will continue until I see reason not to. In the mean time I\u2019m enjoying and probably getting some therapeutic benefit from creating these posts. It\u2019s interesting to see it evolve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
