Photographic Inspiration: What Does It For You?

March 29, 2010 in Inspiration, Photography

The initial content of this post isn’t going to be very long, but I hope your contributions will help us all tap back into those things which first compelled us to pick up our cameras.

I’d like to invite each and every one of you to take a moment on this Monday to remember your beginnings as photographers. What got you into it? Who gave you your first camera and what did that mean to you at the time? What keeps you coming back to photography? How has this art form impacted your life? Where do you find your inspiration?

One of the things that often inspires me is to hear the stories of others, especially when they are talking about their passions. So, if you would, share your stories in the comments below. Everyone has something to offer and even if you may not think so, you will be an inspiration too! It will be a great way to start off your week!
