One of the reasons I've decided to challenge myself with the 52 Week thing and last year with the 365 project is to force myself to keep from getting down in the uncreative dumps. Sometimes it helps...sometimes not so much. But I must say, these dandelions pics are among the best I've ever seen of the humble flower. Great job!barbara l. halehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15251598050638810751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511981110494089272.post-40129652784068299622015-05-17T15:22:21.937-04:002015-05-17T15:22:21.937-04:00Your thoughts does rekindle an echo in me...

Sometimes creativity needs a space - for me a mental space ... and lately things have been adding up at work, and thereby the mind has been occupied elsewhere ... and in the evening, a sort of "resetting" of mind is taking place. Someone has said, that an intentional break from photography / a week or two without taking a single shot, has helped in rekindling the light ... Well, what works for someone, may not be the thing for everyone. A big hug to you, Nicki - For me you are a master of the close-ups and of flower photography ... One day I wish I will learn to capture their beauty like you!Nina https://www.blogger.com/profile/07571243768489766023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511981110494089272.post-87134261178252304372015-05-16T14:14:05.820-04:002015-05-16T14:14:05.820-04:00a date night with your camera seems like the perfe...a date night with your camera seems like the perfect solution!!! your images are always special and gorgeous!!! i hope you become re-inspired but your images are always so creative to me!!!<br /><br />have a happy weekend!!!!

However, sometimes forcing yourself to just go will do the trick too. I totally understand. Getting my year wrapped up with school and upcoming activities is making it hard for me to really enjoy creativity right now.

Date night with the camera does sound like fun. I thought about getting together with other photogs, like a meetup, would help, too (but have not taken action on this...).<br />Time off does help a bit - you will "feel it" again.shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299129399707488442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511981110494089272.post-6748907430527504532015-05-14T11:43:11.364-04:002015-05-14T11:43:11.364-04:00These photos are gorgeous.

Eventually it came back. It will for you too, in time which does not make it any easier to bear.abriannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09011852272421372985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511981110494089272.post-75740730882899913342015-05-14T11:35:01.861-04:002015-05-14T11:35:01.861-04:00Your post made me think...I have been feeling the ...Your post made me think...I have been feeling the same way and didn't even realize it.
