I've been neglecting my photography -again-. It's really frustrating. I take my camera out looking for photos and there's nothing, but on those occasions I leave the camera behind I find these beautiful sights.

I've been doing so much extra hours in work the last two weeks, it's left me exhausted. It's the last place I'd think of taking my camera, but at about 8pm one night last week I was stood in the kitchen there looking out through the windows and the scene was so stunning. There was a sunset, but not one I've seen much before. Everything was pretty dark, but there was this thin line across the horizon that was orange/red that split up the darkness, and the lights in the different office buildings around there just looked so nice.

Yesterday I was out with the family for a meal for my Grandad's birthday. I had planned to take my camera but it was out of battery, so I had to leave it. We went down by the beach around sunset and it was another great scene, perfect for the photos I like to take. There was just a really relaxed mood to everything, the sky was a soft orange, the waves were gently washing over the silhoutted rocks. Bah! I'm taking the camera everywhere from now on.

I'm also a bit worried about my friend. She's supposed to be leaving to go travelling in a few months, and when she was done with that she was going home to her family, not coming back here. I was really torn about that. She's not had the greatest year, she deserves to be happy, and both the travelling and being with her family again would make her happy, and I want her to be happy, but I just found it hard to be happy about the fact my best friend was leaving and there was a good chance I'd never see her again. She's been getting sick a lot recently too, far too often, and the Doctor told her she needs rest, but she keeps pushing herself too much and getting all worked up, it's not doing her any good, and I'm worried she'll make herself really sick.

I'm going to try really hard and get some new photos in the next few weeks. I have some ideas, but most of my ideas need the weather to do something specific, and it never does what I want, heh.
