Not the most interesting picture, but really trying to explore negative spaces and silhouettes. Not quite sure if it works. You do see the reflection of the tree and the sky. The lighting tells you it’s probably evening and the sun is setting. I just like the ripples in the water.

Trying something different with my pictures. I’ve been having some doubts with whether I could produce anything new, so decided to bring the camera down to the river while walking Alfie. I’ve had many opportunities to take pictures there during sunset, so maybe the familiarity allows you to try something new. Again I should just emphasize to myself that it’s all about practicing until you get it right.

Also picked up running again. With the iPhone, at least I can track my progress these days. Heh, haven’t really improved much since March, but then again, I haven’t run in a long while. The knee seems to be back in good shape, as I did two rounds through Princes Park and didn’t feel any pain. I started of with my intended pace and it deteriorated quite a bit after the first round. Will try to forge a familiar path near home instead and am eyeing one of the steep roads for uphill training. Aiming to do a 21km run in October. It’s the little steps you need to start taking before you can tackle the big things.

Heh, I guess it just reinforces the idea that if you want to do anything, you just have to keep chipping away at it until you get enough momentum to stay in perpetual motion, or at least to stay moving long enough to get to one point in the journey before planning the next.
