The Right Questions

This month has been such a rad roller coaster of asking questions (deep and superficial, work and personal). A friend was asking me this week about the merits of doing an unpaid internship and I told them that the sure benefit of such a time suck is that you learn what questions to ask and in return you improve exponentially. I’m learning that maturing (professionally/ personally) is consistently learning what questions to ask and seeking the answers relentlessly.

After a insane week (my brain literally hurts) I’m having a very purposefully lazy weekend.  It feels luxurious to be able to sit around and experiment with post processing techniques.  To have questions and research the answers.  The above is a photo of Antje (who is really awesome by the way) that I took in the summer.  It has taken me a few attempts to figure out what I wanted to do with the vibrant colours. In the end I was glad that I waited until I had the answers.

    Love this image. She is a natural beauty and you have captured this perfectly. Glad you waited until you knew what you wanted to do with the colours, because whatever you did, it’s wonderful…
