Great shot from the archives. On the photographers block thing, this is what I do. I buy some cheap little add-on(filter etc), or get out a bit of equipment I haven't used for some time and try some shots with it, somehow it re-vitalizes everything. The other thing I have to do is to banish all thoughts of "The AM3 folk won't like it"-somehow that's a very crushing thought that kills everything stone dead when you are feeling a bit uninspired.

@CElliottUK: Thanks for the support and tips. I feel a shopping spree coming on....perhaps a new lens or something:)

DULCIE from Danville, CA, United States

I love this lineup...wonderfully processed, a lovely look in black and white.
Push through your 'photographer's block.' We all come up against it from time to time.
Chris has some good ideas. Sometimes I can jog myself out of it by taking some shots from completely different angles than normal...it gets the fresh creative juices flowing. Good luck.

@DULCIE: Thanks Dulcie for the tips I will try all new ideas:)

I like this very much Frances. The high key, reflections and single file are perfectly composed. A real winner.
I certainly understand the "hitting the wall" syndrome your going through. On the bright side we get to see some of these great images that we would have missed.
