As I think back on those months of the year when I struggle the most, photographically speaking, I've concluded that the worst photography month for me is November. Maybe it has to do with it being an in-between time -- the splendor and glory of autumn is over and it's still a while before snow arrives to blanket the barren landscape. My November pictures just kind of sit there, unadorned, blah.
I've got to think of something to pump some life into this month's pics. Hey, I know, maybe I can do some night shooting, when you really can't see how boring the landscape is. Hmmm. Maybe put some people in the shots. Uh huh. Play around with some off-camera flash. Yeah. Maybe do all three at once. That's the ticket.
Night comes around every day. Got my flashes. Just need to find some

You may not care for this photo, but it transported me to my childhood-to a stump that we built a fort under. As an adult I would be horrified to find a bunch of kids living under a huge tree that could collapse on them. As a child, it was my Nirvana.
