Some benefit(s)/easiest parts include not having your subject move and being allowed more time than if in nature. It is challenging to draw from a flat 2D photo b/c it is a representation of reality. I noticed all sorts of details about the position and shape of the bird and tree branch as I tried to accurately represent them in my drawing, rather than just glancing at a photo and moving on. This would certainly make a difference when journaling.

I love drawing, just do not seem to have the time on a regular basis. We've been doing a backyard native plant restoration project and I was inspired to document the changes over time and species that visit. I like the idea of documenting time and place and weather and just jumping in with images and explanatory text. I am also going to try to incorporate this into one of my classes and share what I learn with my students.
