PAD and the Danger of Taking Yourself to Seriously
Here goes my 2nd round with the PAD concept. Here I will allow myself to throw all of the rules out the window and just have some fun....quality is not necessarily important. The point is to get me using my camera again on a regular basis. Fun is the main ingredient. 'Totally Crap' photos are welcome....as the first two entries here indicate.
Update: for those who have tried to vote...Thank you very much. For my own sanity, I've turned off the voting feature for this gallery so that I don't feel compelled to post vote-worthy photos.
Update: I've just retitled the gallery to more appropriately reflect what I'm doing here. It's the same idea as when I restarted the PAD - to just get in the habit of taking (sometimes) and processing one photo per day. Image quality is guaranteed to vary.
Anyway, I'm listening to the radio yesterday and there is a band in the studio being interviewed about their upcoming gig in town that night. The were mentioning all of their musical influences and their own background. They were very serious and came off like they were going to be very good. Then they played a song...and they sucked. I mean they really were just not good. But they were so caught up in themselves and their own situation that they couldn't see it. So it got me to thinking that maybe if they didn't take themselves so seriously, they would be able to see that they should be doing something else for a living instead of being in a band. So I say all of that to say that this is my way of not taking myself too seriously. And reminding myself I'm thankful that I have another job.
Before I forget, here is my late "welcome back" ;-) Nice to know that you'll be a pbase regular again. Certainly don't mind your collection of random shots, not necessarily your signature style but good enough to keep us wanting more! Keep posting :D

Oh good...I'm looking forward to this. I'm with ya on throwing all of the rules out of the window. My Pad has become a "shoot when I can, post when I can" sort of thing. But at least it does get you out there shooting... Anyway, looks like you're off to a good start!
