Perhaps this was the most unproductive year in terms of photography and I will tell you why..
💻Work
For a whole year I forgot about taking care of my family, myself, my favorite business and spent it on helping other people do their work, doing the work for them myself, doing a project that would improve the work of my group and for that I got everything..ta-da..NOTHING. How do you like this exchange? The lesson is understood, I don’t want to repeat it anymore.
🏡Relocation
This spring, my family and I finally moved to a new apartment, which was bought 2 years ago. Now we have more personal space for each member of the family. But there is a big but..apartment in the city and on the road, so you can forget about silence. Let me remind you that since I was 5 years old I lived in an area outside the city where there is peace and quiet, private houses of a field and a river, as well as a gorgeous view from the window. And now I really miss it.. There is nothing better than the virgin nature, which I could touch after 20 minutes of walking, fields that are easily accessible by bicycle and spend time there in peace and quiet.
In the city I go out and inspiration says “bye!” when I look out the windows or walk down the street in this dirty anthill. My dream is to go back, but for now I will try to spend the weekend away from Kirov.
🏥Health
Now I suddenly found myself on a sick leave with such a combo of diseases as tonsillitis and pneumonia. From the first, by the way, I should have developed immunity (as they say on the Internet 😁), because I adore ice cream and cold weather never stops me. I never expected to find the second one, because “I am a northern girl and I am not afraid of the cold” (this is also an excuse). My body itself hints that it is time to rest and reboot before the new year, because I will be on sick leave for at least half a month.
But because of this, I won’t get a bonus, the indicators for which I tried to hold out for these half a month.. And, of course, I won’t get half the salary for this month. And this money was important for me, because now I have:
📷New camera
This is what I promised myself to save for this year, I’ll say right away, I didn’t manage to save the whole amount and had to take out a loan for ½ of the purchase, I plan to close it before my birthday, that is, after half a year.
So, now about the camera itself, my brand new Nikon D750. I bought it to closely engage not only in photography, but also to make cool videos, as well as sell my photos. From this camera I expect the best quality of photos and videos, because on my old D3100 the quality was worse than on phones. But I want to say thank you to him for these wonderful 10 years that brought me here, gave me invaluable experience and made me unique in some way.
🚌Travels
This year I visited Yekaterinburg and I was absolutely delighted, I want to go there again. Landscapes along the way just blew my brain. I have not seen such a year and such chic Christmas trees. And the city seemed to me very spacious, open and incredibly beautiful. The photo says: "I love to travel / Yekaterinburg."
We also stopped on the way to Kazan in Yoshkar-Ola, their lilies in the river conquered me. I was in Kazan for the second time and I feel that this is not my city, but I love their beautiful promenade.
I hope 2020 will bring me a couple more interesting trips.
🐈Kitty-cat
This spring, we found a kitty on the way home on the side of the road. She had no tail and kittens have recently appeared. Her former mistress said that she no longer needed her.. She also told the story that “the cat was stolen, returned without tail and kittens, she jumped out of the veterinarian and ran away from us”. I don’t know what would happen to this little gray beauty if she hadn’t appeared on the road then. We called her Sonya, treated her tail for a long time, made sterilization and now she is a full member of our family. Sonechka is a great joy for us, exactly what was missing after the loss of our cat. You will undoubtedly see her photographs.
Plans for 2020, I will write later, in a separate post. And now, if you are interested, you can ask me any questions, I will answer. Maybe you want to share something with me or tell your stories. You are my strength, those to whom I will always return and I am sorry that sometimes I leave you for so long.. Write to me, I really want to know how things are with those with whom we have known for a long time and those with whom we may have to meet)
