Then I'll just add fuel to the fire, chellyar.
I am leaving for a short vacation to Scotland in a few days. 3 days vacation, 2 days business work.

Hmmmmm.

No fair...

But, there is a small glimmer of hope, I am going on an overnight trip with the local camera club in a couple of weeks, but I'm taking my 3.5y old daughter, and acting as a tutor, so although It'll be a photography trip I can see my camera staying snug and warm in the bag for most of it. I'm also secretary, so I can see some of my time going to administrivia as well... Hmmmm.

A couple of weekends ago I took my first 'for the sake of it' photo in ages while taking a break between sports events. It was very cathartic to not thing about what the editors would like, or what a customer wants. Just studying light and shadow, enjoying the process... Ahhhhh.

Later in the year when things slow down a bit at work, and the sports seasons crossover from winter to summer again I've got to take some time out to just shutterbug, I think I'm getting burnt out...

Enjoy your trips.... Swines.

Not wanting to rub salt into the wounds of people who are stuck at work for a while but I'm at the preliminary stages of planning a 12 day trip through Tibet in August, flying in to Chengdu from Singapore first and then on to Lhasa. Can't wait to get away from the computer for a good two weeks and just enjoy the photography a bit more for a change!
