In a Rut? Want to be More Creative? Maybe a Long Walk will do the Trick!


Are you in a photographic rut?  Is your photography going nowhere?  Is your photo gear just sitting there? Do you just look at it when you walk by but can't seem to get motivated to pick it up, go out and create some art?  Do all your images look alike?  Do you feel that everything has already been photographed and ask yourself "What's the point?"

Here is an article that I thought you might find interesting.  Stanford University's research suggests that walking may be the answer to your problem.  Here is a link to the story.  Give it a read and see if a) you agree and, b) it works for you!  Besides, walking is good exercise.

I like to walk.  Also, I love to drive.  I find when I am walking or driving alone, my mind really gets creative as I have no distractions.  I do some of my best thinking during these two activities.  Some of my best ideas have been generated from walking or driving.

Thanks for looking.
