“A couple of weekends ago my little family and I woke up at 4:30 AM to drive an hour to Galveston, TX to see (and photograph) the sun rise over the ocean. It was something I had wanted to do for a very long time and it did not disappoint. It was peaceful, beautiful, magical, exciting and by the time we left I felt awoken and alive.” -Libertad
Libertad Leal shoots images like this with her Nikon D80 with a 50mm 1.8 lens and spends her weekends juggling quality family time, laundry, cleaning, grocery shopping, family/social commitments, errands, and chasing after a very active toddler. But she always tries to carve out some time for photography.

How do you make time for photography?

Lovely images. I especially like the starfish shot! While I do try to regularly set aside time for dedicated photo safaris (appointment photography?) I also think it's important to always be prepared for the unexpected photo op which is why I love my iPhone so much: http://instamaticgratification.wordpress.com/2012/10/12/286366/
I carve out time by rising before the sun..and sometimes capturing the moon:

These are gorgeous. I like the starfish a lot, too.
Loved these photos!
We recently moved to a different region of our state (tidewater Va) and the inspiration is endless. I make it a priority to find something each week. I've also just starting shooting in manual mode and am proud of the results – most of the shots in this link:

Some days I just take the camera and go to see. Really see. http://backontheflooragain.blogspot.com/2012/10/weekend-at-park.html
Amazing to see all the different types of starfishes ~ a beautiful photo.
Here is a red starfish at Luffenholtz Beach in No. California captured last May

Those are really beautiful images!
I definitely make time in my day for photography. Yes, there are some days I don't give it priority but most days I spontaneously take time to go for a walk, a quick drive, or simply head into the yard with my camera.
As for music:

Beautiful images!
Beautiful images. I couldn't resist capturing some flare on Sunday after a thoroughly atrocious week.
