On a recent photo wander through Chinatown, I challenged myself to take photos at different angles than my usual head-on, Wes Anderson-esque shots. And honestly? When I looked through my photos later, I was surprised to discover that many of my favourites from that day were the ones I had taken from a different angle<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lately I\u2019ve been struggling with old habits – letting familiar thoughts and patterns guide me while being fully aware that, even though they feel comfortable, they are not always helping me grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"A<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And just like with these photos, I\u2019ve been challenging myself to remember that sometimes it\u2019s worth trying something new. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\"Raw<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"A<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Worth shifting my perspective. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"The<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"Electric<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

And I continue to be pleasantly surprised by the results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
