Where do you find your creative inspiration? How do you get your creativity fueled when you feel tapped out?

Hi Daniel, just joined and saw your questions. For me, when I'm tapped out I tend to experience that depleted feeling as something along the lines of a capacitor. I just need a bit of time to charge back up to a workable level. Can't force it, that's worse than anything. If you love what you do, the inspiration will come naturally, and that can be the result of just seeing something from a different angle. From what I've seen of your work here on boundless, it doesn't appear that your creativity is tapped out very often. Regards, Jeff.

I find long hot showers to be a very productive time for me. I think I actually read somewhere that that it has something to do with positive ions in the water. In any event, I seem to get my best ideas in the shower. I know it wounds weird - but what can I say.

I think I get my best inspiration when I manage to shake off the concerns of what I *should be* photographing. When I don't worry what will sell or what is original, and just let myself see what I see -- that's when the creative ideas seem to flow.

That's an important point Daniel. You can get so busy trying to market your work that it can bog you down. Thanks for the reminder!
