Looking for Inspiration #5: Look at Art!Posted by drfl on May 31st, 2010

A few days ago, I mentioned that some photographers take on the photo-a-day project (or 365 day projects) in order to mine some inspiration, even on the worst days. I have never attempted a full year project, but there are a few activities that I’ve found have helped me discover some inspiration. Over the course of this week, I will be providing 5 activities that I have found useful in cultivating inspiration.

Look at Art!
Look to others for inspiration, just don’t it influence and infiltrate into your art too much. Keep your own vision, but be aware of the power of other’s. Let the images descend into your subconscious.

A Canada Goose Mother takes her goslings on a short swim across the lake. The specks on the surface of the water are from the blooming cottonwoods nearby.

Methods of Transportation on Traveling the Journey of LightPosted by drfl on May 26th, 2010

It has come to my attention that some readers are unaware of some of the various ways on which they can receive the “Traveling the Journey of Light” blog. Below is a list of the primary ways that one can access the photographs, information, and stories and how one would go about accessing them.

• Web: Visit http://blog.journeyoflight.com. Perhaps the simplest, easiest way to find the blog is to simply surf to the page in a web browser.
• RSS Feed: Place http://feeds.feedburner.com/TravelingTheJourneyOfLight in your RSS Reader. All blogs (well at least the vast majority) provide an RSS feed. For more information regarding RSS Feeds and readers visit this information page.
• Twitter: Follow @Derrald. Within minutes of posting, my twitter feed is updated with the new link.
• Email: Subscribe here. Every day that I post, between the hours of 5 and 7 Central Time, the latest post is emailed to your mailbox.  Instead of coming to me, let me come to you!

Please, use the mode of travel that best suits you!  We now return to our regularly scheduled program.
