I do not depend on photography for a paycheck so I have the freedom to pick it up and put it down as it suits me.
Below is an example of that. I have not picked up my Fuji X-Pro1 to do any deep, meaningful, work in quite a while. But what I have been doing is picking up my iPhone, taking a couple photographs of an interesting scene, then using Layout by Instagram to create kaleidoscope-esque images that explore my thoughts and feelings.
