Hear, hear!
I don't take many pictures.
I had intended to take pictures, but caught the procrastination bug from XSilverPhinx, so whatcha gonna do?
Nothing today, but maybe tomorrow.
Sort of responding, no, I don't have a camera.

Hmm, look through the pictures you've already taken, but as
Davin suggested, maybe do it tomorrow.
You all have smart phones. You all have cameras.
I don't have a smartphone, or a dumb one.

I was referring to the last challenge, the one about "Attractions"...had some ideas in my head for some photos to take, but kept putting it off, so I blamed xSP (Rightly so) 8)
I definitely intend to submit some for the "Campbell Soup" challenge...

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
Can I be excused because I don't like to take pictures? I don't dislike taking pictures either, it's neutral.

It's the smart brain bit that is the problem!
I have to go out on a dedicated expedition for new stuff, I am not much of a snapshotter. All thoughts of clothes, books, food etc have to be banished or I am too easily diverted. For the "Row" competition my ploy was to go to town early (10am) and spend two hours thinking nothing but competition entries. Then I had cajun chicken and a craft brew for lunch and then did my shopping.
Trouble is on a bad day (more of those in the winter) mobility can be a bit of a struggle, after a morning straining brain and system I am knackered! Should I ever win I have my subject chosen already - a nice cosy (but not easy) indoor one that may tax the artistic bits.

Lark, I was thinking the same thing. It is supposed to be a fun thing, so we should not try too hard to be artistic.

I know, I usually can't help myself and get too self-conscious with these things.

What happened to the joy of solving the problem with the bits you've got?
Hermes won taking a pic of his books, the lazy bastard.
The "Row" competition was won with a pic of tea cups pot and laden duck spoons.
You need to MacGyver it mate.

You are so right: I am probably the laziest person here. But, I always tell myself, if it weren't for the lazy people, we would still be living in caves. We lazy ones are the creative ones who want to find easier ways to do back-breaking jobs.

Hmm, laziness as a stimulus for progress, eh? Sone merit in that, the lazy person sometimes finds the simplest, most efficient way of doing things.

that's where the bug went, hey? :grin:
:secrets1: No wonder I've gotten so much done these past few days.
As for the new Photo Challenge category, I have an idea but need to think of how I'm going to execute that idea. :notsure:
