Pen to Paper

My 52 Week Challenge shot due a couple of weeks ago was Pen To Paper. Finally got it done today. I suddenly realised I was being creatively and photographically paralysed by a "need to get it perfect" so I decided I must just step back and let it flow, and if it's not perfect well then tomorrow's another day! (Or at least that's the plan anyway). So now I have to get involved in some 365 challenges instead of being too scared to start
Super image - very glad you've made a start. Just do your best and improve as you go along.

@cottiac Thanks Cottia. Yes it is time I pulled myself up out of the photographic doldrums isn't it!

@seacreature You'll find getting involved will do just that as @quicksilver can vouch 😊

@cottiac I braved up and put my name down for Get Pushed Challenge next week! I will attempt to observe what happens this week. I have no idea what ETSOOI means or how that works, so I will just wait with that for a while. The 52 week challenge looks quite interesting to me so I might well embark on that one!

@seacreature Good on you! ESTOOI basically means processing an umage much like I often do and a whole lot better. Now you are an Ace member you can use Picmonkey for free - link is provided beside each image you upload.

Another easy one is the F Word challenge. Current word is Four. If you'd had 4 items in the pic of your Fathers items you could have tagged it for that.

@cottiac Ohhh. I see. Thank you. Maybe I should look into F word now with Get Pushed and then try ESTOOI later!

@seacreature Sounds like a plan!

That is a very crippling fear and fantastic that you've recognised it and found a way to work with it x
And nice shot 😄

@narayani Thank you! My mother's hand writing. She has chewed all her fingernails down to the quicks since my Dad's passing, so I am working on her to stop chewing her nails. I think she liked that I was using her in my photos too, like I got Dad to do things for me.

@seacreature I'm sure she loved it - what a beautiful thing to do.
