if you can believe it, i left my apartment at quarter to ten this morning, got to my destination by three buses 40 plus kilometres west at a little past one. my jeweler friend has moved her store from downtown toronto to the suburb of mississauga and i had to pick up my pearl necklace that she had to repair for me. coming back to the city was much quicker, just under an hour via a different route and different bus system. then i had to go way east and had my hair trimmed and it was six by the time i got back to my apartment. three different places and not once did i manage to take any photo, except when i was waiting for the bus three stops from my apartment building, and this was the shot i got -- from a building which backside i could see from my balcony. pathetic!
however, if the weather is still decent tomorrow after church, i shall go to the beaches proper and see what i can find.
i am totally totally out of inspiration and motivation. that said, i do like taking photos of people in bridges, balconies and walkways. maybe i should have a continuing series on that. or maybe it's time for the one weekly only.
It was unwittingly nice of the guy to wear such a nice bright complementary color like yellow for your photo. Maybe if you look at the weekly SH*T list it will give you some motivating ideas. Or maybe if you can escape a full day of errands and just walk somewhere pretty/relaxing or wherever you are happiest, it will help get you remotivated.
Sometimes, I only manage to post snapshots. I suffer from lack of motivation often, so when I am someplace that I can take a number of shots, I used them over a period of days. My project, right?!
Sounds like a great idea for a series - I think people on bridges and balconies (and picnic tables) would work very well. Hope you get that motivation back soon. It leaves us all from time to time - sometimes for far too long! You were right to capture this - that pop of yellow breaking the patterns and colour of the building is just what was needed.

If you've got your pearls back, you could do a lovely white on white?!!
Hope Sunday is happier for you. X
