Photography in Confinement

​For all of us who are active photographers we are heavily impacted by the lack of freedom of movement these days.  I normally travel about once a month around the state or the U.S. to photograph nature and wildlife.  Once or twice a year I might go out of the country to do the same.  Now, I cannot go anywhere except for a few places within my county in Northern California.  I’m trying not to get depressed about this and some days are better than others of course.  I do have home projects going on and that helps to mitigate my lack of mobility. I was also able to get out to photograph some spring wildflowers and a nearby apple orchard and I’m continuing to work with those images to create and experiment.  
 
I’m thinking about how to photograph inside my home using available flowers and other objects.  I have a friend who does beautiful work in her home using all kinds of interesting objects, spoons, spices, bowls, etc.  She is a master at it.  I might end up doing something similar but I’m not yet sure just what.  I am using the time to continue to learn photoshop and recently gave a few Zoom lessons on LR which turned out to be fun.  I also try not to think that the entire year will be this way!
