Work Space

Not a lot happening right now with my camera or even with editing.  There's been a bit of a lull in my motivation but I am sure it will return as it usually does.  In spite of that, I have been working on recreating a work space at home for editing.  I had been using an old computer armoire to house all my photography books, laptop, hard drive, etc and planned to edit there-- but it never happens.  Facing into that cabinet feels so stifling that I always go somewhere else.  You aren't supposed to edit in different places because the light changes and screen looks different.  Anyway, it is so far out of my area of expertise to decorate or rearrange-- but I am trying to make an effort and create a space that feels good and inviting (and also is a nice addition to my home.)  I found a red desk at Target that I love.  I hope I pull it off and don't end up just wasting money, time, and energy.

I can keep working on my Project 52 stuff and I have yet to work allll the way through my Lightroom5 book- but I want to grow more.  A year ago I was inhaling every book from the library in every spare minute.  Now- I am not as motivated.  I don't know where to go next in my learning and it seems some resources aren't good or relevant.

For Mother's Day- I think I am going to ask for: 1. Something good to eat. :) 2. A ticket for a NUTS game. 3. A 3 month subscription to Lynda.com- supposedly there are many high quality teaching videos available and you can watch as many as you want during your subscription.  Maybe that would help.
