>> The difficult thing to come up with is an idea. <<
Bwahahah! Is this actually true for photographers? It is not so for most writers, or even for most of the artists I know. I am fascinated to see if it is different for photographers.
I am, of course, properly a wordsmith, rather than a visual anything. But the two pieces of my artistic ability are my eye for color and my eye for composition. So I'm trying to get my technical skill with a camera up to where my hand can do justice to my eye. Eh, I'm making progress. Most of what I get now is good for my purposes (posting on my LJ) and some are even artistically good.
Ideas? The world is full of them. I rarely manage to shoot all the ones in view before my camera batteries and/or my body run down for the day.
