For part of my birthday, we did a bit of glamping. It was a canvas tent with full amenities and a wood stove inside. I brought my camera and had made all sorts of plans to shoot on the ranch. When we go there, there was a forest fire nearby that made the air quite hazy, and I immediately started to stress out about getting all my shots. I grabbed my camera and went to work. About 10 minutes later I realized the point of the trip was to relax and destress. Things at work were hectic, and we both needed to chill. So I put my camera away and decided to be in the moment. I don't want to live in fear I'm not capturing a moment and end up missing it all together. There is a time to photograph, and there is a time to be present. It was a good trip.
