Today we had a last meeting/trip with colleagues from Foto-Academy. We went
to trip into near by city Antwerpen. Intention was to take some pictures on
Sunday market and than visit a photo museum and have some nice dinner.

All things turns out little different. As usually market was very very
crowded and that is dissolving my ability to focus. Even I had few plans
what to take pictures of, problem was that at the moment I went there I
realize how useless and uninteresting to me is taking those pictures.
So I sit in café next to market and was drinking some juice and thinking
what to do. I was watching people and going through my former plans for
picture taking. I find out that my plan to shoot hands of people is maybe
nicely done, but the results woudn't interest me much, the same was about
some other details from market. I didn't really want to take pictures of
part, details or similar cropped things.
I made a mistake I didn't select my plans correctly I didn't consider all
possible effects and situation and didn't choose what is important for me.
Now when is tomorrow I can see what I could do, but it is too late.

The rest of the day my mood went down as I didn't even finished one roll.
Photo museum was real disaster. I do not understand how one museum can
display so little as in Antwerpen and well, somebody maybe like it but I
have to force myself into it. In my humble opinion pictures which were
there sucks totally. I force myself to like maybe two or three. But imaging
totally on two floors (when excluding exhibition of magazines covers) was
about 20-30 pictures. Completely useless, nothing telling pictures of size
1.5x 3 meters. Well maybe this is just my frustration from my failure that
day. But I would ask my money back if that would be possible.
Dinner sisn't happen as suddenly nobody wanted to stay, it looks like not
only me wasn't fully satisfied, but nobody said so. Well I knew now
something more about myself.
