The overarching theme of this month is Grateful For and while the photo has nothing to do with selfless acts it is about something that I am grateful for - rain! It has been quite dry in Brisbane with grass fires flaring both north and south. The grass is brown or non-existent in many places and even some of the native trees are struggling. The small storm that came through didn't give much rain, but it was a start and put some welcome water into the rainwater tanks.
Quite often I find myself focussing on what is actually happening in 'real life' rather than staging a photo to fit the prompt. I've noticed that this seems to be happening more often. Perhaps I'm finding that it's simply easier to run with what is happening around me at the time. However, in doing so I'm aware that I'm not really challenging my creativity beyond taking an 'interesting' photo. I need to become more aware of that aspect of my photography in the time that is left for me in this cy365 challenge.
