I have a backlog of images to work on from the past five years. I don’t mind this at all, as I like to know there is something in the chest, for that rainy day when I wish to work on something and have some free time.

Many years ago, I always felt that if I had not worked on images as soon as I’d shot them, then I would lose momentum or would never get around to them. I’ve found that not to be the case for me now, and I currently have a beautiful set of images from Senja Norway from 2020 to work on at some point, as well as recent images from Argentina and Bolivia from this year to work on as well.

Occasionally a set of images get away from me though.

I published the images above in my newsletter in 2019, but never got round to putting them on this website as a gallery. I just stumbled upon them today and it was such a delight to find them.

I must admit that I never thought I would get to a point in my photography where I would overlook a set of nice images such as these, but that is just the way it is I suppose.

There is something important about remaining fluid in what you do, and always keeping moving forward. I am mostly methodical in my approach. Not so chaotic. I prefer to complete work, and if it’s not finished, will strive to complete it. But I’ve been thinking lately that I now have learned that some things have to hover in the ‘incomplete’ stage for some time, and that them being in an incomplete stage is perfectly ok to do so.

I had plans for this set of images, but Covid got in the way, and kind of derailed me. Them surfacing today reminded me of the hopes and focus I had at building a more comprehensive set, and has spurred me on to thinking how I can get round to completing the work in the next year or two, schedule permitting.
