This post really sums up my philosophy on shooting. It’s amazing that we think so much alike. Then again, I find your photographs quite interesting, too. Love that last line: “unplanned goodness”.

Sometimes it’s nice to have the luxury of waiting for the light. Sunsets are more fun than sunrises, but often the prettiest light happens at dawn. Figuring out where to be is just as you described it. Bleary-eyed, cold, and not always what you expected. I’ve have had instances where something unplanned came out of the disappointment of not getting the light — my shot “Morning Swim” was like that. A sunrise didn’t happen, but then something else did, and my frame of mind was ready to accept an alternate image.

Not the image we came for, perhaps, but something else instead. Something magical. Something interesting this way comes.
