My little brother (one of two that are both bigger than I) went on a short photo safari last night around Grand Rapids. We ducked in and out of buildings as the clouds let a few rain drops loose which only added to the excitement of the evening. We had a blast.
We both commented last night on how shooting with someone challenges one another and inspires the creative eye. I had forgotten what that felt like. As a creative, I tend to live in my own little world and its rare that inspiration comes from an actual human interaction – most of mine comes from the Web, environmental design, nature and architecture. I can see where I’ve been missing out – which will change.

So true. So very very true.
It’s always fascinating to see what catches other people’s eyes when you’re out taking photos. You can be standing in the exact same spot as someone else and come up with an entirely different photo.
I’d love to join you sometime if you ever feel the need to have a bigger group.
Sounds like we have a photo-walk in the making! I’ll tweet out some dates and maybe we can get a group together. Love it!
