First thing I did this morning. Well, after writing, which is the real first thing I do in the morning.
I came up with the idea to shoot this while I was doing my morning pages from the Artist’s Way, an exercise I’ve been doing just about every single morning for getting on close to a year now. I usually light a candle while I’m writing, and it seemed like a decent idea. I don’t like the way it turned out. It’s rather dark. I wanted it to have that nice candle-y glow to it. Guess I’ll have to do some research on how to make that happen. For now, here’s a dim view of a candle for ya!
Pretty, man. And I like the circumstances under which you took it – after morning pages. Actually, I like that you took the last picture during your lunch break too. There’s something oddly poetic about it.
Maybe because it’s the whole being in the moment thing. You were really noticing things around you in those little moments.
Ooh, I love this idea. If I can’t actually light one (if I’m writing in the library or something), then I’ll pop over to your blog and take a look at this!
I got the idea from a book called The Artist’s Way. If you haven’t heard of it, I recommend thumbing through it at the bookstore and seeing what you think. I can’t even begin to recount what a difference it has made in my creative life.
