Over the slump...

I've been in a photo-slump and somewhat discouraged with my photography for the past couple months. A friend just picked up a DSLR as his first real camera and wants to get out shooting, this is becoming a good motivator for me.

One of my big things is that I don't like to draw attention to myself when I am photographing. It's not a shyness, but more that I just don't like to be stared at I guess? Having someone to photowalk with, someone who isn't afraid to crawl around on a sidewalk to get a good shot, is helping me get over that, plus it's funny to watch sometimes, and also to see people's reactions as they pass by.

At that, I am hoping things will pick up for me and my photo-taking, which is a relief for me. We'll see how things go from here.
