The right time to take a picture

I'm always planning when to take my pictures. What time of what day, what the weather will be, what the location should be. In reality a photograph can, and should, be made at any time and any place.
The weather, the time of day and the location make the image. As a photographer you control the frame so any situation will do.
When I came to this realization it gave me a sense of freedom.
All I had to do was put on my sneakers and step out of my apartment armed with my camera and my tripod. All else will fall into place according to my eye.

*deep breath*

So go out today and shoot, no matter whether Hurricane Bill makes an appearance or not.
