I made this post the other day about being self-conscious in public.

Thanks for all of the advice, some really good ideas and words of encouragement!

So, today I decided to go into the city and try again.

I was recording with the gopro and taking pictures. I said before going out that my aim today was to go out, get used to people looking and probably feel a little awkward 🙃.

Well the good news is I did it and I’m still alive. Through myself in at the deep end. I’ve been up, down the high street and round the Christmas market.

Downside I didn’t get any pictures haha. Felt a little nervous to take them, even so my camera was mostly up 🤦🤷‍♀️.

I think next time, I’ll feel even more comfortable hopefully. Felt like I was rushing around a little day.

I’ll maybe plan my walking route and have an intention of what to shoot or at least an idea (that was a suggestion previously).

Sorry to ramble, just wanted to share.

    That actually makes sense. It’s probably more difficult because I’m new to both recording myself and photography.

    But even after a short time yesterday. I stood waiting at the traffic light, and it was obvious what I was doing, I just smiled and thought yeah I’m recording, and what 😅.
