I go back to Assynt to do a hike I wasn't able to do last time I was there. And good thing I did, because it didn't disappoint. What a place.

Time to photograph beautiful Torridon, in Wester Ross, Scotland. I photograph some of the most beautiful spots, and I go on a hike and get a good view of a stunning landscape.

Who are we creating our art for?
in journal
In this video, I expand a little bit more on the post from a couple of days ago, Who are you creating for?.
By the way, this video is from my second channel, @aows.jpg, where I talk all things photography. One I created to keep my main channel cleaner, but you can read more about that here.

Growth is hard, but so rewarding
in journal
Scotland has been quite a challenging place to photograph, to say the least. For most of my time here, the rain and wind made my job incredibly difficult.
My gear took some damage (exhibit 1, 2 and 3), but I also had to endure the elements myself.
And yet, these challenges made me a better photographer. Scotland pushed me, but it did so in a very positive way. I had to work hard, really hard, but without being overwhelmed by impossible conditions, even though I did face some of those moments.
I feel like I've grown as a photographer more in the last 2 months than in the entire past year, since I went on a similar adventure across Norway. It was tough, even painful at times, but I cherished every minute of it.
Testing our limits, wherever they may lie, is key to growth and progression. Photography is no exception.
