Yes. This is the same photo that was in the blog yesterday. No. This is not the same post.
Today, the photo is an example of a very important creativity tip -- periodically change your creative tool of choice. Leslie took this shot with a Polaroid, rather than the digital camera she had been using. Switching cameras makes her think about lighting, composition, etc., in a new way. The results -- after some initial challenges -- are beautiful.
Tackling those challenges is what teaches us, what spurs us on to be better.
Today, if you typically compose on a computer, pick up a pen. If you paint, use a crayon. If you're a baker, try whole wheat flour instead of white. And stir with a whisk, instead of a spoon.
Mix things up, and feel your brain light up!
