Shutter(-) Negative A Photographers Journey, With Complimentary Sarcasm

Sudden Trip, Maybe Great Opportunity

Life can be quite random at times, and the best tip I can give to anyone, is find a way to take the random and often unwanted, and turn it into something you will enjoy. I am in one of those random situations; one of my uncles who at one point a few years back moved into our house for 8 months or so, mooching off us and sleeping in his 79yr old dad's bed.

He is back again, and instead of waiting for him to get money to get a bus ticket back home (map of where that is below) I am taking him home today. That is a 4 hour drive from my house, and that would mean at least 8 hours minimum to get him out of here. Am i mad? Hell no, because I am making it work to my advantage.

I always want to get out of state to take photos in a new place. I usually don't have the time, and when I do have time, I don't have the money. Well I'm getting paid to take him back, and I will be out of state anyways, so on the return trip I will be stopping where I see fit (taking a longer route as well) to take photos. Granted it turns my 4 hour return trip into more then likely a 6 hour return trip, if not longer. But it takes a bad situation into one that I'm excited and happy about.

So expect to see some new photos (hopefully, I could get nothing worth sharing) and a more then likely interesting little story in a day or two.

About Corey

My name is Corey Eacret, I have been loving photography since I first picked up a camera 5 years ago, and I continue to love it daily as I find a new reason to pick up my camera all the time. I love to share what I know, and to teach others the love I have for this art.
