    Friday Freestyling “Muse-ical”

    Do you use photos to guide your posts?

    Sometimes, a blogger will write that they’ve run out of ideas for a post, or that their writing well has run dry.

    Something that always works for me is to review my thousands of photos.

    There’s almost always an idea amongst them.

    Yes, I take lots of photos. I’ve done that since I was a teenager and was gifted my first camera.

    Photography to me is a magical hobby where I can explore the world either close up or from a distance. Looking for subjects while I’m out for my walks, while we’re out for a drive or on vacation, or even when I’m just hanging out in the house keeps me grounded in the present.

    Almost all of my photos are time and date stamped, so they’re also the diary of my life.

    Whenever I wonder about a future blog post, I just go to my Amazon photos and start browsing. Before too long, a photo or group of photos (from the over 8,000 I have stored there) will turn on a lightbulb and away I go.

    My photo muses lead the way.
