The inspiration list

This list is to help inspire people who are having a yucky photo moment , where they think all their pics are rubbish, or need a kick up the bum to take a pic.


Add any ideas you have, that might inspire someone to pick up their camera today

Suzi xx



3 things you cannot live without, in a Still life

Tell a story in 4 shots

After the rain, get snapping outside after heavy rain

Trees

Take a shot with Mono conversion in mind.

Colour in your cupboard, raid your kitchen cupboards


Hit the streets, try street photography

Change then angle, take a shot at an angle you never normally would.

Self portrait

Textures

Go to the zoo

Take a shot based on your favourite book title or song


Shoot a household object several times, but in total different ways.





Please add any ideas you can think of, it may help someone who needs some inspiration XXXX

Also, any inspiring websites.

Re: The inspiration list

A fantastic thread Suzi - one I will probably use a lot! I will add some things myself when I'm not having such a dead moment where inspiration is concerned!

Actually - I can add one now - try taking photos of smoke from a cigarette, or incense or a candle! Take the photo against a dark background, and play with the colours in PS - see what you can come up with!
