Do you start projects and then get distracted or too busy to finish them? I have so many ideas for photography projects some of them never get started and few have reached a point where I feel like I’m finished.

I’d planned to work on one of my projects this week, but have changed course since my dog was injured Monday. I’m spending the week watching him and telling him not to chew on the bandages. I usually let him out to run on a steep fenced acre. Now, I am taking him out on a lead to walk around and take care of business. It’s hard to keep the bandages clean on the dusty road. And I was planning on camping and photographing near my favorite hot springs this week!

Oh well, I’ve got loads of other projects around the house to finish, so perhaps I’ll work on one of those this week and have a project to write about soon. But it won’t be the dog – he doesn’t like to be photographed. When he sees the camera, he wilts. When he sees his lead, he wags.

Photographer Howard Grill’s announcement of Nature Photography magazine’s publication of his Twin Jewels Project on two parks near his home in western PA has inspired me to go back to work on some of my photography projects. Click here for all of Howard’s posts on his Twin Jewels Photography Project.

Howard is planning to do something more with his many photographs (the mag chose 5 for publication) from the project and he’s soliciting ideas from his readership. You may want to congratulate his success in comments and offer your project ideas for his Twin Jewels photographs.
