Digital BW, The Print

Richard,

You being a jazz fan, I'm sure you'll find plenty of inspiration there...
I glanced at your page and noticed that you live with CFS... Keith Jarrett
had that same problem some years ago. He recorded "The Melody at Night with
You" right after he was "cured". It's an incredible album!

Some "medicinal marijuana" might also help... I realise it's kind of
controversial though...

Something that works as well is to not sleep at all during the night and go
out shooting early in the morning - works best in summer and spring
though... You'll find your senses much sharper than they usually are.

Finally, there's something that usually works; looking at art (paintings,
photographs...) in books or museums...

My 2 euros...
José

Subject: [Digital BW] OT - needing inspiration


Hi,
every now and then we probably all find our creative selves to be totally
lacking.

This morning I went to the extreme measure of photographing my toaster from
every possible angle! None of the photos inspired me.

I wondered what exercises any of you do to get the creative flow running
again.

Any ideas would be appreciated,
Richard
