Beat the Winter Blues – Revisit Your Photography!

Blog by Michael Raso

If you’re currently lacking the creative spark or if it’s just too grey or cold to shoot, consider spending a few hours re-visiting and scanning some of your photo files, old negative or slides.

I’ve found that images that I rejected upon first inspection take on a new meaning when viewed 12-plus months later. Give it a try. You might be surprised what you find!

Below are the images that I passed over upon first glance in 2010.
