Lazy Photography is No Bueno

I was a lazy photographer today. 

I used all my energy, productivity, and willpower on getting up early after a night of insomnia, getting to work early, and then convincing my tired self to follow through with my plan to play pickup beach volleyball after work anyway.

I brought the camera along just because I thought I could get some time in before and after, but it ended up an afterthought once I got to the beach and I sat down with my feet dangling off the boardwalk in the sand.  All the interesting subjects were far away and all I wanted to do was sit.   Especially given the fact that I was about to run around chasing down errant balls all over the beach, I had no desire to move around and think artsy fartsy.

The light also wasn't quite right since it was still roughly 2 hours to sunset and overcast... and 30 minutes and several haphazard shots later, I ended up with utter mediocrity. 

But hey, at least I got in a great workout.

Hours to Date: 6.5

This would have been much more interesting if I hadn't been lazy and actually went up to the umbrellas
