Photography is imagination

Your skills are challenged by new vision and new situations not encountered before. For example, go to your backyard and take a picture of any object that interest you. Nothing that interest you? great!! find something that doesn't interest you and create something. I did it, I took a picture of this rusty grill vent and made something out of it. Know you potential even though it is not there yet, but you know how to find it.

Magazines; a good source of ideas!

click to enlarge I have a vast amount of photo magazines and I love to read them constantly, even the old ones. They are a great source of ideas. For example, I did this project after seeing a master photographer do it. Obviously, I tried to improve upon the idea and run with it. This picture won a prize after hours of research and planning on my part. Just because it looks simple, doesn't mean it is.
