can anyone find it in their hearts to give me a little inspiration? I really want to start taking eye-catching photos but i'm in too much of a rut to go looking around for opportunities. i'm a bum right now looking for work and i never get out of the house other than to see my girl.

pic related -- i actually took some pictures of squirrels to try to expand my skill. i don't think it worked.

Just go out! Don't take anything with you except the camera and keep it in your hand all the time. Put your camera in auto or program mode, don't worry about technical side. Get close to things and shoot! Visit wvs.topleftpixel.com/ or flickr.

Hope this helps. BTW great photo! Maybe photoshop it a bit.

your exclamation points have inspired me. i will now go conquer my local campus by way of camera.

btw please to explain program mode? i also don't get 'custom' mode. i can't seem to glean the difference from my manual...

i'm in the same "new to digital photography boat" as you are slim.

i also am doomed to walk around my college campus taking pictures of odds and ends.

i long to be out in the woods back east, alas i'm stuck in some bumshit inland empire south california.

p.s. i haven't quite figured out what program does yet. i just use the manual/auto modes on my panny lx2.

Walk 2-5 KM for 2 days. Keep camera in hand and take a photo of whatever strikes your fancy.

Toilet in Noumea.

I was walking around New Caledonia one day and a dude drove down the street; one hand on the wheel, his head and hands to a camera.
