Win Some – Lose Some –

I was so hoping that I’d be chosen for the ‘Mattering Life’ residency.  Unfortunately it was not to be 🙁

I was absolutely gutted!  A lot of my photographic work in the past has been very organic, so I was really hoping I was a good fit.  Sadly it was a no – although the organiser did reply to me to say I was at the top of the reserve list, which was really kind.  I’m keeping my fingers crossed that a place might still become available, so please wish me luck.

As a result of a number of rejections lately, I decided to add a category called ‘Rejection’.  I’m not entirely sure whether this is a good thing or a bad thing at this stage.  I’m hoping that too many rejections will motivate me to work harder? Of course I might just give up, but I guess there’s always those little wins to help keep me going.

However, ‘on the up side’ a local gallery has expressed an interest in my mobile.  I’m so excited! Maybe today hasn’t been so disappointing after all.
