On a windy and cold afternoon, I took a wander through the neighborhood around the hospital. The lighting was challenging, and it didn't take long for my fingers to go numb. And, to be brutally frank, the pictures turned out barely mediocre. Because we all need more utility wires in the middle of our photos.

But I'm still glad I took the time, because it was good for my soul to do nothing but compose and shoot anything and everything that triggered me. On this day, the process mattered more than the result, and the real world didn't seem to mind my temporary absence.
