Wednesday Wisdom on Thursday

Where to find inspiration? This is a great surprise to readers but I love photography. (shocking, I know) Winter makes it a tad bit difficult to take outdoor pictures - the ground, the sky and in this picture, the water, are all varying shades of gray. Not much color.

As one of my New Year's resolutions, I committed to a fun project 365 - taking a picture everyday and posting it (www.dhonnerphotos.com). When I leave in the morning and it's dark and come home at night and it's dark ....well, it's hard to be inspired.

My friend Jewels takes some great pictures on her blog. She found some great things outdoors and gave me some ideas. My other friend Lisa (with her swanky new Nikon camera) also takes some great pictures and posts them here and here. They both have advantages in children who make great models or objects that make create pictures. I think that I have exhausted my portfolio of Mr. Handsome. He has even started running when he sees my camera.

So I will be seeking new inspiration in the house. Flowers at Flowerland and Sam's, here I come!

I have some inspiration for you. Yesterday I came across a Flickr group for Madcap Coffee downtown on Monroe Mall. Their barista has got to be the most talented in GR. He makes a beeee-utiful cup of coffee...with incredible designs in the foamed milk. Amazing, I tell you. Please go down, at your earliest convenience and take some pictures of coffee. Seriously! :-)

Can't wait to see the results.
