Your writing is so poetic, and so clearly captures that lull that comes before new artistic growth. It is the dissatisfaction that keep you moving ahead, trying new things. It might be time to revisit some of the Find Your Eye material. Take some time to look at where you've been and where you are, and then listen to your heart on where you want to go. Amazing things await, I know it. Thank for sharing this with us in your Photo-Heart Connection this month.Kat Slomahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00645480835605671040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33364332268534843.post-53464307592090876552013-04-03T07:55:52.577-05:002013-04-03T07:55:52.577-05:00I hear you Cathy-I get it.

I've been working thru these emotions for quite some time-days at a stretch of blah, blah punctuated by an uplift a couple times a week. One thing I have found helpful when that happens is to slow down. In my mind I think "what am I missing here?" sometimes there isn't anything, but often times there is.<br />I remember when Kat found hearts out and about. I bet she'll like this one, especially since it's "organic". Keep on keeping on.Simon https://www.blogger.com/profile/03844538179633976411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33364332268534843.post-24366484471511242482013-04-03T04:56:56.633-05:002013-04-03T04:56:56.633-05:00I love the thought process you went through with t...I love the thought process you went through with this picture. I think it is photographer growing pains, you want more and just not quite sure how to get it yet. That is why we keep taking classes to learn more and keep growing more :)Sarah Huizengahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07326211901751159368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33364332268534843.post-72142974037865122162013-04-02T20:03:01.521-05:002013-04-02T20:03:01.521-05:00Cathy - oh, I completely understand that grumpines...Cathy - oh, I completely understand that grumpiness and dissatisfaction. Where every image goes into the recycle bin - delete, delete, delete. But I like the way you didn't give up - you kept going, took the time to breathe and to really study the changing world around you. And then it happened - that magical connection, back to your heart. bgottsabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05461670189821043052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33364332268534843.post-816578696966040652013-04-02T18:54:38.185-05:002013-04-02T18:54:38.185-05:00i think you have expressed perfectly what we have ...i think you have expressed perfectly what we have all felt from time to time. the ebb and flow is so great on the flow side...not so great on the other. i happen to love this shot and the lines and texture in it. totally speaks to my heart. xoxoxkellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05153095149911030832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33364332268534843.post-48618072472836756042013-04-02T18:44:38.097-05:002013-04-02T18:44:38.097-05:00I thought I was the only one who bothered to take ...I thought I was the only one who bothered to take pictures of bug trails in wood! I'm pleased to meet you, Cathy! :-) I love the textures they make---I always wonder if it's a language that they are really writing hieroglyphs in the wood with some important meaning ... or are they just hungry?

I think we all experience those times when our muse slips away and we seem to lose our love for photography, but it always returns and the universe is always there to send us those loving signals like the heart you found.
