Well written. I was struggling with this exact thing recently as well. It seems no matter how many times I experience this it will invariably happen again. I find it especially hits after a period of not shooting. You get out and excited to take some photos because it's been a while since you have and the pressure tends to get the better of you. That seems to be when it hits me the hardest. I need to remember to just enjoy the process and that it doesn't matter if I come back with nothing. It's meant to be enjoyable, not stressful.

Thank you for the reminder. Love the shots of the seagulls.
