BLOGGING IS HARD
for me at least
I appear to be making a habit of not posting for long periods. There might be a month where I do what I intend to, and post once a week. Then there could be a month gap between. And sometimes longer! Distractions! I have way too many distractions in my life. I call them hobbies, but boy oh boy do they distract me from taking pictures.
I’ve been writing this blog for little over an hour at this point because of Top Gun (original, and the best by the way). Major distraction. Perhaps I need to focus more? Or stop some hobbies? Or just carry on and be happy with the pace in which I post on here? I think it will be the latter.
Another 20 minutes have past and I’ve written a paragraph of sorts…
As much as I love taking pictures, documenting my family (more on this later) and working on projects, when I need to step away and live, I do. Fishing. I’ve fished since I was a young boy when my Grandpa taught me. The first fish I ever caught was a Perch, and 30 years later it is still my favorite fish to catch, albeit different way of fishing now with lures but that 3oz perch I caught 30 years ago really set it off. Before the river season in the UK ended in March I managed to land my new PB at 3lb 12oz!
This is a good distraction!
The latest but not new hobby is shooting. My son showed an interest so I picked up another PCP Air Rifle for him and we’ve going going out most weekends to the range. He loves it and I’m so happy that we are able to spend time together while doing something we both enjoy.
Today he even shot a 20 gauge shotgun for the fist time at some clays! He was absolutely made up and his face! I wish I had my camera because his face was just pure excitement!
As far as distractions go, spending time with family is the best.
With all of that said, I’ve just dumped my SD card to the computer, and there is still quite a few frames taken this month. Anything good? Nah not really but just a lot of memories, that I’m glad to have taken.
I need to get my a**e back in to gear really and get back to a project I really got going earlier in the year. It will take a few years I suspect as the seasons change and events happen but I need to drive up there and get cracking!
Here is a handful of pictures I’ve taken during March
