We all occasionally need inspiration, a creative catalyst. These photos are very inspirational and I hope all of you will find your photographic muse and post some of your original photos here after seeing these:

This only inspired my doubt about the future of humanity.

It did absolutely zero to my creativity!

Interesting H, a fair bit of shopping involved in a few I’d say, but I know one thing, there’s a lot to be said for a well-functioning colosseum where the lions are fed regularly, lions aren’t too particular…are they?
That’s the direction my inspiration took me I’m afraid, after seeing those and thinking about CATalysts for a moment or two.

What would inspire you?

Yes, some people like to make a public spectacle of themselves and some people like to watch. No one here wants to be a public spectacle???

Artists who show something different, be it another angle, with another vision or with some PP work. Yes, the images shown would fit in all of these categories, but it does not inspire me.

Seriously Henry, I suppose someone should document whackos and the decline of the human race in general, it would be a lifetime’s work, but one does wonder how many of those in the photos are put up jobs, they are just too weird to be true…surely.
I have thought a few times that maybe I should take photos of the obese people that go into the supermarket while I’m outside waiting, there seems to be lots of them these days, (and most of them are females) many more than when I was young.
The reason for it was I got into an argument about it, so I threatened to prove what I was saying by taking photos of them all. Then it went a bit quieter.
I guess one could take photos of subcultures like bikers or drunks that live in public parks too if one feels particularly adventurous.
As far as becoming a public spectacle goes, I’ve always considered myself to be more your observ-er rather than an observ-ee, so to speak.

Mark, I think you are taking this post way, way, way too seriously! I thought it was clear that it was tongue in cheek.

Got the hint

I tend to think that several of those were - "you lost the bet, pay up" photos!

Probably right!
