Along the way, 4
In addition to being the tourist and the photo-journalist on this journey, I’m an individual struggling photographer hoping to move beyond competent.

The difference between utility and utility plus beauty

“…and when the tension receded there was calm, the calm that is called before the storm, but is in reality the foundation of a human life, waiting there for us between the steps of our march to our mortality, when we are compelled to pause and not act but be.”

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.)
