It's a drab dreary day in London with drizzling rain and an overcast sky.
The world is still going to hell in a handbasket but live goes on.

Dismal Day

Not the most inspiring opening for a blog on photographic ideas but it is exactly what you need to create new ideas. Take walk around your home for photo opportunities.

Tip 1

Get up Close and Personal

Get Unusual Angles

Cut out any extraneous background and zoom in to fill the frame.

Tip 3

Photograph the Mundane

Textures

Search for textures in everything. You may be surprised what you find.

Tip 5

Photograph Anything

Don't restrict yourself. Get low to the ground or high up. Top down views or bottom up. Try seeing things from a cat or dog's eye view.

Final tip.

Steal Ideas

The first photo above was inspired by a photography meme that went viral some time ago.

Everybody steals ideas from other people. That's life but give a credit to those that inspired you if you know their name.

Have fun and get snapping. 馃憤
