Sometimes you just can't pull it off...tonight was my reality check. I was so prepared to take a sweet shot in a casino, lugged my camera and 2 lenses to dinner (was made fun of for carrying my "luggage" to the restaurant by a friend) and pulled out my camera to take a shot when I was told (by my smart camera) after pressing the shutter, "no card." Insert expletive here.
So, with an hour to spare (before my self-imposed midnight deadline) I ran around the house (with a wine buzz) looking for some inspiration. I not only chose to take this uninspired photo, I took it badly. It is terribly under exposed, there's an ugly color cast, the white balance is off, the crop is weird, but the worst of all is that the photo is meaningless. I love this blue bowl because my Great Grandmother gave it to me and I love these candies because I bought them in Italy but seriously, the shot means nothing. Lesson learned...for now. Sometimes, you just have to have these reality checks to do better next time! A great shot will be posted tomorrow.
