I realised during the weekend that I’ve been spending more time recently writing about photography than actually going out and taking photographs.

So this week I’ve resolved to get outside and enjoy the first flush of Spring. Every lunchtime at work, I’m going to leave my desk, go somewhere and shoot a roll of film. The pictures don’t have to be particularly good, and I may ultimately think “what a waste of time and money”, but I need to do something to break out of the winter apathy.

As I’ve only got an hour or so to spare, I can’t go far, so the small town of Hemel Hempstead and the surrounding countryside will have to do. I’ll post a few of the best shots (if there are any!) at the end of the week.

In the meantime, if you’re struggling for inspiration or you keep finding excuses to stay indoors, why don’t you just go out for a couple of hours and take some photos, any photos, just to get back into the swing of things?
