Description

A very symbolic image I guess. I tried to capture toughnes in nature in an artistic way. Sometimes it feels lika I just try too hard to get the right picture. Some times it feels like I take a huge step in my development just too take a step backwards again the next day. Maby the question belongs in a forum, but can´t realy find my way around there. My qestion is what keeps you motivated the day's when nothing goes your way?

I try not to worry about it too much when I hit a dry spell. It always clears up after awhile. I think the best way to deal with artistic frustration is to relax and not try to force it, because that only makes it worse. This is a beautiful shot. It's simple without being too bland, and emotional without being too heavy-handed (although, to be honest, the title is a little heavy for my tastes). Taking shots with a concept already in mind never works well for me, so I'm glad you could pull it off.

I may even fire up Photoshop and yahoo chat! :) I love this photo .. it's great, and so is the title. Now, smile that gorgeous smile!

great image... i have never had those thought and worries you have... maybe im just a hobby photographer, i just take it as it comes... sometimes i dont do anything for months, and hten i can snap 1000 shots in 3 days. i think you are really good. i have never given that much thought to my photography, maybe i should.

This is an exelent and dynamic shot. Great composition. Like that the small plants in the background lean the same way as the post. Nice double titel

Good question Benny... music, laughter, books, more laughter. Closing my eyes and feeling... ANd you've certainly captured 'strength' with this one... Just trust in your eyes and feel what you're seeing...
