Funny thing is, when I first looked over your photos in the original thread I was thinking, "I sure wish I had his nerve." But, since it was all an act, maybe there is hope for me after all. :)

Well, I think I have found a way around some of the problems expressed here. How many pictures you don't take now would you take if you were invisible?

As soon as they are affordable, I can begin stalking the great shots (or become a paparazzi).

It's not that ideas don't strike out of the blue anymore, but that the ones that do require setup situations that make me uncomfortable... |
There is a famous line by William Carlos Williams: "No ideas but in things", which I remind myself of from time to time. It encourages me to discover intrinsic properties and has probably prevented both artifice and boredom from entering either process or picture.
