I haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t been traveling much over the last couple months and as a result I ran out of fresh images to post. Obviously one of the solutions to my problem is to go out and shoot more. Another approach is to explore something that was missed or left unprocessed in the past, basically look back. And that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s what I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m doing \u00e2\u20ac\u201c I look back and dig my image archives.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

While doing that I stumbled across images of the sunset that happened on January 7th<\/sup> 2007 in a small coastal town Wynyard in Tasmania, possibly the best sunset I have ever seen in my life.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Back then I wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t experienced enough to shoot or process it properly and ignored most of the images\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 fortunately I was wise enough to store them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now looking at these images, I remember that during that evening I was taught a few lessons: first, \u00c2\u00a0I was so excited to see what was happening that I forgot to take my tripod with me and later couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t go back to pick it up as I could miss everything. Since then I always have a tripod with me \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 well almost always – sometimes I forget that lesson.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Second lesson was to look back and around \u00e2\u20ac\u201c I was so focused on the clouds and rainbow over the sea that I almost missed everything that was happening behind me. I always look back now \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And that applies not just for image shooting – very often something that you are looking for is just behind you and you fail to see it because you are too focused in one direction, in front of you.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Looking back at your past experiences is also essential, it helps to learn something new, remember your mistakes, re-discover something that you could miss or not understand before. It helps to move forward.<\/p>\n
