Talking about ideas that don't work out.

Screenshot of my Lightroom with the not quite perfect photos.

I was so excited about this idea that I conceived on the fly a month ago. 
Little background: After my Daisy Girl Scouts bridged I had a ton of balloons and I made a snap decision to try out a new idea. 
My plan: I would make a fun little series of photos of me in my 1950's glam look with the balloons.
I was aiming for  a poignant and classy look.
I changed into my favorite dress and hat and my classic sunglasses. I got on some classic looking makeup and ran outside with my tripod. It was a blistering hot day but I was determined to get these shots
My backyard was a great background for an impromptu shoot. I got the shoots I wanted and was all excited to start editing. I went to edit them a few weeks ago and found that I'd forgotten my sunglasses in all of the shots! *head desk*
So sometimes you hustle and do your best and ideas don't work out. The important part is that I plan on trying again. I work really hard to not stress about what could have been and focus on what comes next.
I'm looking forward to trying again.
Have you ever had an idea that didn't quite work out?
