My Secret Lens
I’m wondering if I’m the only one with a secret lens – one that is for my eyes only – one that will never be published. My secret lens is called, simply, “Lens Ideas,” and that tells you exactly what I use it for.
I’m still developing myself as a lensmaster, even after publishing fifty-one lenses. I’ve made the mistake of creating a lot of WIP (work in progress) lenses that throw off my cumulative lens stats. I would like to stop that habit.
Now, when I have a new lens idea, I usually don’t rush to get a lens started. Too often they sit there undone for weeks or months even. That’s depressing to see day after day! Instead I open my “Lens Ideas” lens and use one of the blank text boxes to jot down my newest lens brainstorm.
I’m sure as time goes by my secret lens will find other uses, but for now, I’m gratefully keeping it all to myself as a tool that helps me cope with my lensmaster inspirations.
