Earlier this year I started posting a photo a day on Facebook and on this site. some days they were good photos and some days they were bad photos, but somewhere along the way I started to feel that it was a lot of the same. I felt like I wasn’t being creative, I was in a rut. Many people fall into ruts you don’t need to be creative to know that, but somehow I felt like me not posting would give me time to reflect and pull myself out of my rut.

I went and worked on other things and slowly I started to forget about posting photos. I started to go back to my old ways of hoarding photos in my computer for no one to see. This was until a few days go when I started to edit a pile of photos I had been collecting and realized that I really liked some of them and others may as well. Immediately I remembered my challenge earlier in the year and I longed to start posting again. I decided that today would be the day that I start posting a photo a day again.

What to post though? I have a small stock of photos that I enjoy, but I wanted to post a something that felt a bit differently.

I have been talking with a friend on and off for a few weeks about different lenses and he agreed to lend me a few of his to try out a zoom lens and 14mm wide angle. Pair that with Carolyn asking me to take photos of Priscilla Prickle Pants her hedgehog and I had my photos.

Without Further ado I present Priscilla Prickle Pants.

This little hedgehog was not a fan of this photo shoot but she was so good for it, but the end just like me she was quite tired of the tea cups and fled back to Carolyn to calm her down and put her back in her home.

Till tomorrow remember, sometimes just looking at things a little differently is all it takes to get you out of your rut.
