Photo Ideas

One of the reasons for someone to belong to some type of photographic association (local clubs, on-line sites) is stimuli. Ideas. Projects. Assignments. This is one of the reasons I'm playing on Flickr, even though there are other (and somewhat more user friendly) places to store photos on-line.
For example, group names which pop up for me today (not that I'm going to join all these groups; but they do give one ideas of things to look for):
- Green is Beautiful
- Unseen War (staging photos with toy soldiers to keep the toy box safe
- Altered Signs (finding signs which have been altered to convey somewhat different messages than originally intended)
And, some of the groups I do look at frequently:
- B&W (also spelled out, 2 groups)
- Medium Format
- TLR (a type of medium format camera)
- Studio Lighting (a subject I'm beginning to explore in detail)
- Home Studio (related to above)
There's more. Lots more. If you feel up to it, go visit www.flickr.com/photos/madshutterbug/. Or not. I know some of you do already.

Nikon FE2 (one or two photos)
Mamiya C330 (mebbe half dozen? Anything referenced to New Zealand, as that's the camera I took with me)
There may well be a few shots done with a Nikon Coolpix 4600. And one shot done with an Olympus whopping 1.2 megapixel point and shoot.
I think I did a general listing in the Flickr profile.
And thank you for the compliment. Been shooting for
forty-something yearsa while. Your birding photos are pretty snazzy too.no subject
