Life after Sino-Sing
Thursday, June 28, 2007
If you don't realize, I have been so so lazy these couple of weeks in updating this blog. You might be wondering why there are some blank posts. That's because I decided to pre-publish the posts for my Sino-Sing trip. And I have yet to distribute the photos to all my friends! Argh... super procrastinator, a perfectionist procrastinator.
Why is perfection a building block for procrastination? I am always thinking of post-processing my pictures perfectly before posting them. It takes up so much of my time then I am put off by the effort. High volume editing is boring; but I really enjoy small volume, high quality editing. My mentality is changing: post the pictures first and if there are any major improvements after editing, delete & replace the previous uploaded one; if one looks more or less the same before and after, leave it. Perhaps it's the same for everything we do? Like my 40SAR S2 officer said to me a long time ago:"Do a rough-and-dirty job first and edit it continuously later." I never quite believe it till now.
I have also been reading up on religion, relationship and, as usual, photography. Life has been so eventful and changing...
