Pink Sky in the morning…
“Fail to plan, plan to fail” being a teacher this was a saying that was always drilled into me when at university, however I’d arguably say over planning can also be detrimental to your creativity and here’s why…
I’m a bit of a stickler for checking the weather forecast the night before and deciding if it’s worth going out early in the morning, I often spend ages trying to decide if it’s worth it or not and often don’t end up going anywhere because I stress it’s not going to be ‘optimal’.
For this particular outing I had done exactly that. I decided to go to bed without an alarm or plan as I had over thought the possibility of it being food and decided the sunrise wasn’t going to be special, I mean I wouldn’t mind but I don’t really have a clue when it comes to predicting a good weather or a sunrise!
Anyway when I woke up the next morning, lucky early, I noticed the sky had begun to glow. I rushed out like a headless chicken and managed to get this shot. If I’d have been a couple of minutes later I would surely have missed this image.
I wonder how many more awesome mornings I’ve missed due to over thinking about what if? Maybe I just need to be a little more spontaneous with a rough plan, rather than planning everything to the last detail and not going out unless it’s perfect..just a thought.
