I'm so eager to get outwith my camera but I have absolutely no inspiration! The jar idea sounds great. I love your images, Leigh!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17541748309832254889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-80311860065553885802015-09-29T18:31:09.782-07:002015-09-29T18:31:09.782-07:00Thanks for the mention here Leigh.

I, too, am hungry for another assignment, but more importantly, the community of amazing people that collaborated to make it so special. Keep up the good work on the self-assigned work. I'm looking forward to seeing more patterns from you! -Aanngeedeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02444031026522711413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-10061464957764042492015-09-29T16:45:12.799-07:002015-09-29T16:45:12.799-07:00I've read this twice and failed to comment.

This is really too fantastical but I've thought a lot lately about our Picture days and have been missing them as well, as much for the close friendships as the prompts. I remember Angie's jar idea and I think it's a winner. Our iPhones are terrific but we each owe it to ourselves and our artistry to keep our love affairs with our Big Girl Cameras alive. Or to put it another way, dance with them that brung us.

Maybe I need to go back to school? I am a fan of homework. If it involves cameras. But online courses, I generally run out of steam. Okay. Quit job, take course in person. That's sorted. Thanks, Leigh! hahhahaAFishGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05513718005250273753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-7851430272115766712015-09-29T08:10:39.713-07:002015-09-29T08:10:39.713-07:00Oh, yes, I think we are all still suffering a bit ...Oh, yes, I think we are all still suffering a bit of withdrawal from Tracey's classes! Since those classes ended, I have been enjoying the prompts on Flickr at Prompt Addicts. Love Angie's prompt jar idea too! Your photos are wonderful and really show your creativity coming back to life. Now that our hot weather is starting to cool, I'm looking forward to getting out and making friends with my Canon again!terriporterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14333055591899961253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-68860952841541767682015-09-29T07:08:37.883-07:002015-09-29T07:08:37.883-07:00oh yes leigh...running out of steam at the end of ...oh yes leigh...running out of steam at the end of summer...totally get it. love how you're getting back into your groove with nature like only you can do! :)kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05153095149911030832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-45549122352933092492015-09-29T05:03:16.280-07:002015-09-29T05:03:16.280-07:00Sounds like a great idea to keep your creativity a...Sounds like a great idea to keep your creativity at a peak!

I wonder if you have seen Xanthe's Paris -London site -//www.facebook.com/pages/London-vs-Paris/196490193743553. I love how their prompts are so specific ( ie: lamp post" etc) They really give you a sense of place. The US might be too homogenous, but we could try a few ....Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05433584313253805817noreply@blogger.com
