I took the weekend off from shooting motorsports. Noreen, the dogs, and I went to Yachats, one of our favorite places on the Oregon coast for some rest and relaxation. It had been a while since we had been there and I was hoping to get some new landscape images for my portfolio.
From almost the moment we arrived I felt pretty out of touch with this style of photography. Since I have been focusing so much on motorsports photography these last few years, I found it extremely hard to shoot landscapes again. I felt so out of my element. It is definitely a different style of photography and requires a lot different mindset. It is true that “practice makes perfect” and I felt far from “perfect” this weekend.
