“There is no doubt that creative work is itself done under a compulsion often indistinguishable from a purely clinical obsession. In this sense, what we call a creative gift is merely the social license to be obsessed.” Otto Rank
Note to self: check the date on my social license to be obsessed, I don’t want it to expire anytime soon.
Oh I really like this – fabulous lines – both prose and photography 😃

Thanks Becky. I’m not sure Rank’s psychological theories are prose but he does have a good point.

I thought they would be prose unless he writes them in rhyme? Ooh now there’s a thought, perhaps all theories should be rewritten in poetic form?!

It depends on how you look at it. Another 100 RAW files might keep me amused for a while but I only needed one decent shot.

I called and it turns out they never expire, once you have one you have it for life.

I better check the date on my license to be enthusiastic. I am always surprised when out with people how little they notice of their surroundings.
This shot is frameable.
