I have this habit. I have a hard time just laying in bed, turning off the day and falling asleep. I'm on a computer from 8:30-5:00 and then come home and am typically on a computer editing/working from 6:00-11:00 or later. By the time I lay down, I need something to take my mind off of the day.
Lately, I've been filling that time using my iPad and watching videos online about photography, photographers, the history of photography, different techniques.

This is how I discovered Vivian Maier.
Research her. Watch the news special on YouTube that a local Chicago station picked up. The story is incredible and the lingering mystery about who she was adds to the magic of her images. If you're lucky enough to get out to Chicago, go visit the History Museum and see her exhibit.
After learning about Maier, my newest Christmas wish list dreams? A Rolleiflex.
