Love/Hate

After the seven hour drive from school, I'm finally home.

I love the solitude of my house and seeing the awesome peoples from high school and rowing, but I still miss Fairfield.

Speaking of love/hate, let's talk about photography.

As soon as I got home, I went out with my two dogs, Zeus and Hera, and my camera.  I shot for a bit, but as I was heading into the house, I had a fleeting thought.

For an instant, I thought, what if I had stayed for another minute and my dogs had made a killer expression or done something crazy like they always do.  If they had, I could have gotten a better photo.

I usually live with no regrets, but with photography, it's about that decisive moment.  If you miss it, that great photo is nothing.

So stay a bit longer and wait for something special, but if not, don't worry about it.
