Never Go Back !I was on my way to a job a couple of years ago – fairly locally. I had a deadline to be with the client to photograph a presentation, and didn’t really have time to stop on the way. Driving past, I saw this boat – moored up, and I thought, that’s great – I’ll go back an shoot it on the way home, or maybe another day. The voices in my head, that I’ve talked about before, and said you should listen to – shouted at me “do it now”. I did, I stopped the car, got out, and took this one image. When I was finished – I drove home the same way, back to see the boat again. There was no boat any more. It had gone. No longer any photo for me to take. So, I reiterate….. “Never Go Back”… shoot it now. When and if you do go back it won’t be the same. It can never be exactly the same. The weather will change, the light will change. The thing you want to shoot may not be there any more. It might be better, or worse, but never the same. I always tell people to keep going back to the same location – over and over – to see it in different lights, moods, and seasons. You will have a different attitude, and a different mood. You will try different viewpoints. Always though, shoot first, and ask questions later…… Enjoy your photography…..
