Here we go.

My first post. I didn't think it would be this hard. After all, I blog almost every day, what's another post? Turns out that blogging in the company of all these amazing women brought out the "Am I Good Enoughs". What if that's stupid? What if I suck? What if that only makes sense to me? So ideas get deleted; and inspiration evaporates. Then this morning, I passed by these wonderful self portraits, done by my nieces last year. I have children's art displayed all over my house, and love the boldness of it. Kids don't judge themselves. They just jump in and feel their way through. It doesn't even occur to them that they don't "know how" to do something, or that it won't be good enough. It was a great reminder that progress is in the doing. Success is in the doing. And this goes for photography, as much as in anything else. There are books to read, endless websites to learn from. But when it comes down to it, it's always about just getting in and feeling your way through. So, off we go!
