January Light Hunting

3/365

In the city I live in, the words grey and winter are generally intertwined.

So when a day like today happens, when morning fog covers the city but then shifts to wide open blue skies, it is something to be savoured.

I had to get out for a wander even though with Soulful Gathering starting on Monday and another super secret (and very exciting) project due soon, I probably should have been attached to my computer all day.  I figured I needed to practice what I preach in my photography and video classes and step away from the computer.  To just make space for some exploring.  To fill up my creative well.

I wandered down to one of my favourite places to shoot nearby, a big factory turned art studio with gorgeous grafitti.  Near the building is a beautiful community garden too so going on a photo walk down there gives me a perfect combination of urban and natural beauty to find.  It did exactly what I hoped and I came home with a filled up memory card and my creative well filled up too.

Here are a few bits of todays light hunting and beauty seeking:
