“Always take your camera with you” That’s a phrase that can be read almost on a weekly basis in all those glossy photography magazines. Last Friday I realised what good sense those words really make. I was gazing lazily out of the morning train window at a truly beautiful sight. Through layers of morning mist, cows strolled casually about their field, silhouetted by the morning sunshine in the background. Truly fantastic! Of course my camera was sitting at home. Despite a very short Friday night I jumped out of bed bright and early on Saturday morning and eagerly made my way to the scene. Not a drop of mist in sight and the sun was hiding partly behind a scatter of clouds. I am assuming a moral to this story… If you can’t shoot a fantastic picture, fiddle with a mediocre one 😉
