I feel more aware of the creative process and try to trust it with enthusiasm, alternating between insecurity and doubt. Also, combining my own projects and deadlines with a school schedule has been quite challenging this month. Since I am living in the city, it is also challenging for me to find natural spaces that would normally inspire me to take photos. Moving from a more rural area to a bigger city certainly brings challenges in finding the space, both mentally and physically, to take pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1003\" height=\"1024\" data-src=\"https:\/\/errr-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Jongen-in-het-Gras-Floor-Martens-1003x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-214592 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/errr-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Jongen-in-het-Gras-Floor-Martens-1003x1024.jpg 1003w, https:\/\/errr-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Jongen-in-het-Gras-Floor-Martens-294x300.jpg 294w, https:\/\/errr-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Jongen-in-het-Gras-Floor-Martens-768x784.jpg 768w, https:\/\/errr-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Jongen-in-het-Gras-Floor-Martens-1504x1536.jpg 1504w, https:\/\/errr-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Jongen-in-het-Gras-Floor-Martens-2005x2048.jpg 2005w, https:\/\/errr-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Jongen-in-het-Gras-Floor-Martens-12x12.jpg 12w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1003px) 100vw, 1003px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1003px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1003\/1024;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>What words, ideas or emotions were running through your head?<\/strong><\/strong><br>Trust, hope, connectedness, intuition, let it wash over me.
