How many photographers have unfinished portfolios, ideas they started with some photos and scribbled notes of things to do and places to go?<BR/><BR/>Sometimes the interest or circumstances just fade away, to collect dust in a room and in your mind. My first MS thesis failed when it was nearly three quarters done for the one factor I didn't realize. People weren't cooperating with my research, and without their involvement, I couldn't finish the analysis and write the conclusion.<BR/><BR/>After a few months of frustration I found a job and went on with my life. I discovered another thesis topic a few years later using research from work, and got the thesis approved for the degree.

Unless I misread your comments, it seems fine to revisit projects from time to time. Time, opportunity, material, motivation, inspiration, and perspect all play a part. The important thing would seem to be remaining occupied. When is a project every really finished? Some painter somewhere once said the most difficult part of painting is knowing at what point to call it good. Fortunately, projects offer an endless canvans on which to work.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07900794624470813123noreply@blogger.com
