A judge in a contest once mentioned that sometimes people over-complicate things when it comes to photography. We tend to think that to make extraordinary photographs, we must go on vacations or go to exotic places. Sure, those places often inspire you and you get some great photographs, but he stressed how you also should be able to make great photographs in your own house by "looking" at things in a different way, maybe isolating a particular detail in an every day object or that special light that comes in your window early in the morning might also deserve some attention. Richard Martin once said, "If you can't make a good photograph where you are, stepping on an airplane isn't going to change that". I have tried to remember both pieces of advice and make it work for me. The image below was the side tray on my barbecue the morning after a little rain, I thought the different sizes and shapes of water droplets were very interesting.
