I am suffering from blogger frustration.
Perhaps, single blogger frustration.
I have been rather good about following Islagringo's dictum that bloggers should carry a camera wherever they go. (I recently rued my failure when a power line came down in the middle of the town square and I was cameraless. I have seldom seen such fireworks short of Independence Day.)
I just returned from a short walk with Jiggs to the beach outside of our gate.
Jiggs was in high form. He schmoozed with the surfers. He ran in the incoming tide. He made sand angels. He bonded with a new dog friend.
It was one of his better beach days -- and close to home.
And I had remembered my camera.
The photograph at the top of this post is the best one of the day.
In a word: nada.
In addition to the camera, I was carrying his "droppings" bag and my sandals.
Whenever I would set everything down to take a photograph, he was off to another activity.
If I tried to take a photograph while holding everything, they got in the way of the lens.
So, veteran bloggers and photographers, how do you multi-task when you are out on your own, and still take great photographs -- or any photographs?
I suppose a back pack is an option.
Any others?
