Perfection is a Journey!

I have never considered myself a photographer. Bot even a okayish kind of. Because I would want my pictures to be perfect. As if I am working for the sole purpose of earning money through my pictures and each pic has to be perfect.

Over the years, I realised that my way of capturing a scene or a landscape is not to garner interest, or to get whistles and shout outs on my photography journey. Its

My way of expressing the things and it need not be all glossy and gold. My frame can spill over, the focus could be hazy, the picture would have been better in a different angle, and what not. I am ok with it and still publishing my pictures on Insta. At the same time, I am open to learning new ways of improving my skill, enhancing the impact. I have accepted that my photography is a journey .

Why do run so much after perfectionism. Why can’t I be ok with something being not so perfect and still the apple of my eyes. Perfection is something we learn on the way and we can only learn when we accept what I know at this moment, be ok to expose it to the world, and not be afraid to experiment.

Friends, if it’s cooking , painting, sports, or anything, don’t run after attaining the perfection. Run, make an effort in actually enjoying every bit of mistakes you make. Every art piece may not be Picasso but it’s a Picasso in making. All the dish is not for the Michelin stars, sometimes it’s for the tastebuds in your tongue. Do things for your sake. And. Make mistakes. Fail at them. And still be courageous to call you them your own product.
