In addition to being the tourist and the photo-journalist on this journey, I’m an individual struggling photographer hoping to move beyond competent.

Don’t sell yourself short there, Brooks. I see the you as a quite competent photographer. You may need to perhaps adjust your approach, and of course the geography has changed, but I suspect that all those things will translate well in your new world.
I know the feeling Brooks. In my case, with my current lack of photographic outings I fear that I am going to slide the other way. In any case this monochrome image goes beyond competent so you are moving in the right direction.
Agree with Cedric. But, I also see you as a competent photographer. You show that continuously in your images.
I wasn’t fishing for compliments and personally I have a great amount of respect for “competent photographers.” I could be happy being “competent” as long as I was enjoying the process as well as producing results I respect and enjoy. That’s not to say it wouldn’t be great finding my own personal creative voice in my photos and perhaps a consistent lasting style. Who knows? :-)
Anyway, thanks everyone (Tom, Cedric & Monte.)
