t's when you get to a dry spell and have no one to photograph, the squirrels are in hiding, the flowers aren't blooming and the butterflies are in their cocoons, the kids are all home, the grass is brown, there's no clouds in the sky, they've turned off the fountains for cleaning and you're reduced to taking pictures of asphalt (without the lines) ... THEN complain!

LMAO! You have a point!

Maybe it's time to put the camera down for a few hours/days/etc., take a walk in a park, along a beach, around downtown at lunchtime, to breath deeply, to take in everyday life, to reattach yourself to the world around you, to (as one of our members tag line says), "see what your photographing".

I'm one of those "A-Types", when I'm in the heat of it, I don't really stress, but I long for a moment to sit and "do nothing". When that moment arises...I feel guilty...and get bored. All my life Ive struggled with balance. You're right though, this may be what I need, even if for just a couple hours.
