Photography has taught me to find inspiration in everything around me. I observe everything more closely these days; patterns, colours, shapes, textures and the interaction and juxtaposition of all of these will have be grabbing for my camera.
If forced to pick one element that is my muse, I would have to go for light – a bit cliché perhaps, for what is a photo without light, but it’s the shadows, the reflections and the colours that call to me. And it is light that drags me out of my bed in time for sunrise, even though I am really not a morning person!

Light is so important and can make a photo of something really rather ordinary turn into something special … like this picture – I hope the inspiration carried on through the day.

It did! The Grand bazaar and the narrow streets are great for strong light and shade

Not cliche at all. No more so than all the other things we all will be sharing. I’m with you though, since I started carrying a camera full time 7 years ago i notice so much more than I ever did. I love it!

It’s amazing isn’t it. I’m like you , the camera is always there. And even if it isn’t for some reason, I’m taking photos in my head instead

You’re so right about photography making a person observe more closely. I take photos of all sorts of things and it’s such fun, especially because if something doesn’t turn out, I can just get rid of it. I like the patterns you got in this shot.
