An Idea to Break From a Creative Drought
It is no lie that I have been slacking lately in taking new photographs. While I have been spending a decent amount of time making some refinements to this site as well as placing a lot of focus on my Etsy shop, I have been at a creative standstill and I am not to sure why. It seems as if I go through cycles where I am either photographing a ton, or not at all.
Seeing as how I am in that “none at all” part of the cycle, it is time for some action. It it is my goal to take my camera everywhere I can with me this weekend and to take at least 1000 photographs by sunday night. For some of you, this may be a very easy task to accomplish. For others, like myself, this could be an opportunity to spend some long overdue quality time with your camera.
So, if you are in the same boat as me, sign on and take this little challenge. Dust off your camera, blow the dust of your sensor, and clean your favorite lenses. Take as many photographs as you can by Sunday night. Tomorrow evening I will share the favorites that I took this weekend here in a new post. I invite you to comment with a link to where we can see your galleries online.
Ok, no more typing. Time to grab my gear and to get to work!
Great suggestion. I’ve been feeling much the same way. While I didn’t go out and shoot a ton of shots today, I did go out and take a few shots, however. Here is one of my favorites, Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor
