It’s been a quick but very busy week. This week’s roundup will be equally quick .

Darwin Wiggett and Jay Goodrich have had the brilliant idea of cross-posting on each other’s blogs. The first post of the series address the question of where creativity comes from. Great insight, entertaining writing and obviously terrific photography to be had:

Here is Jay’s post on Darwin’s blog: http://darwinwiggett.wordpress.com/2009/06/02/guest-column-jay-goodrich/

On another order of ideas, one of my favorite bloggers and photographers, Guy Tal,  says “…you are there to make images of beautiful experiences. Make it a beautiful experience first, and you will have something to photograph.”   Guy discusses a dilemma that many of us come across so often, which what drives to photograph, but mostly how do you not lose sight of the big picture, no pun intended. I highly recommend reading “Answering the most important question”.

I would also like to do a little bit of shameless self-promotion if you don’t mind. Check out my workshops page, there are still spots open for my fall workshops, a lot of fun and great photos to be had! Also, a big thanks to Suprada Urval who graciously interviewed me as part of her ongoing Photo Talk series. Please check it out here and take a look at Suprada’s beautiful photography.

Last but not least, I’d like to send you to the site of one of my favorite tweeples (twitter friends): Christine Glade is a terrific photographer with a great personality to boot. This particular section of her portfolio is a series of photographs around the theme “Color is a verb” a true visual delight! Check them out here.

That’s it for today. I wish you all a great week-end.
